Ingredients
 

  • 1 bottle 750 ml of white wine (such as Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc, or Riesling)
  • 1 cup peach schnapps
  • 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup simple syrup adjust based on sweetness preference
  • 3-4 fresh peaches sliced
  • 1 orange thinly sliced
  • 1 lemon thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup raspberries or strawberries optional, for color and added flavor
  • 2-3 sprigs of fresh mint for garnish optional
  • Ice cubes
  • Club soda or sparkling water to top off (optional, for a fizzy touch)

Instructions

Prepare the Fruit:

  • Slice the Peaches: Wash and slice the peaches into thin wedges.
  • Prepare Additional Fruits: Thinly slice the orange and lemon.

Mix the Sangria:

  • Combine Wine and Peach Schnapps: In a large pitcher, pour the bottle of white wine and add the peach schnapps.
  • Add Lemon Juice and Simple Syrup: Mix in the fresh lemon juice and simple syrup. Stir well to combine. Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less simple syrup according to your taste.
  • Add the Fruits: Add the sliced peaches, orange, lemon, and if using, raspberries or strawberries to the pitcher.
  • Chill: Let the sangria mixture chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or overnight if possible. This allows the flavors to meld together.

Serve:

  • Garnish and Serve: Once chilled and ready to serve, give the sangria a good stir. Pour the sangria into glasses filled with ice cubes, making sure to get some of the fruit pieces into each glass.
  • Top Off with Club Soda (Optional): If you prefer a fizzy sangria, top off each glass with a splash of club soda or sparkling water.
  • Add a Sprig of Mint: Garnish each glass with a sprig of mint for a refreshing aroma and a touch of color.
