Pro Tips Before You Start

Chill All Ingredients First: Helps the sangria stay cold longer without needing tons of ice.

Use Ripe Peaches: They release more juice and flavor.

Infuse Overnight: If you have time, letting it sit longer deepens the flavor.

Batch It Up: Double or triple the recipe for a party – just be sure to use a larger pitcher or beverage dispenser.

How to Make Peach Sangria

Step 1:

In a large pitcher, add the peach schnapps, sliced peaches, fresh blueberries, mint sprigs, agave nectar, and your bottle of white wine.

Step 2:

Stir well to combine all the ingredients, gently pressing the mint leaves to release their oils.

Step 3:

Cover and refrigerate the pitcher for at least 1 hour.

For best flavor, let it chill for about 4 hours to allow the fruits to infuse the sangria.

Step 4:

When ready to serve, give it a good stir.

Pour over ice into glasses, making sure to include some of the fruit.

Step 5 (Optional): Top each glass with a splash of sparkling water for a fizzy finish.

Garnish with a sprig of mint and a few berries or peach slices.

What to Serve It With

Charcuterie boards with soft cheeses and prosciutto

Grilled chicken or shrimp skewers

Fresh fruit tarts or lemon cookies

Summer salads with citrus vinaigrettes

Variations / Substitutions

Make it Rosé Sangria: Swap the white wine for a chilled dry rosé.

Use Frozen Fruit: Frozen peach slices and berries keep your drink cold longer.

Add Citrus: Orange or lemon slices give a tangy brightness.

Go Boozy: Add a splash of vodka or rum for a stronger kick.

Storage & Leftovers

Refrigerator: Store leftover sangria covered in the fridge for up to 2 days.

Best Fresh: Sangria is best served the same day, but even better after a few hours of infusing.

Do Not Freeze: The texture of the fruit will suffer.
