Ingredients
3-4 ripe large peaches, thinly sliced or diced
1 large lemon, thinly sliced
1 large lime, thinly sliced
1/4 cup granulated sugar (or to taste)
1 (750ml) bottle dry white wine (e.g., Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc)
1/2 cup brandy or peach schnapps
1 cup sparkling water or club soda, chilled
Fresh mint for garnish (optional)
Ice
Instructions
Step 1: Wash peaches, lemon, and lime thoroughly. Slice the peaches into thin wedges or dice them. Slice the lemon and lime into thin rounds.
Step 2: In a large pitcher or drink dispenser, combine the sliced peaches, lemon slices, lime slices, and granulated sugar. Stir gently to coat the fruit and begin dissolving the sugar.
Step 3: Pour in the white wine, brandy (or peach schnapps). Stir everything together thoroughly until the sugar is mostly dissolved.
Step 4: Cover the pitcher and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or ideally overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and deepen.
Step 5: Before serving, taste the sangria and add more sugar or a touch of simple syrup if you prefer it sweeter. Stir well to combine.
Step 6: Just before serving, add the chilled sparkling water or club soda to the pitcher. Stir gently. Fill individual glasses with ice.
Step 7: Ladle the peach sangria into the ice-filled glasses, ensuring each glass gets a generous amount of fruit. Garnish with a fresh peach slice or a sprig of mint, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy your delightful peach sangria recipe!
Notes
For best results, use very ripe, fragrant peaches. The chilling time is crucial for flavor development, so don't rush it! You can adjust the sweetness by adding more sugar or a little honey/maple syrup. For a less alcoholic version, reduce the brandy or replace it with peach nectar. This peach sangria recipe is incredibly versatile!
