I adore whipping up invigorating summertime beverages, and my Berry Peach Sangria is ideal for a sun-drenched, lazy afternoon. It marries a dry, crisp white wine with the summery, fruity flavors of peach schnapps and brandy.

A rainbow of fresh berries and peaches gives it a beautiful presentation, but they also serve an important purpose: packing the drink full of vitamins! A splash of club soda makes this Sangria so refreshing that it is borderline dangerous.

FAQ

  • Can I use a different type of wine?A dry rosé or even a light prosecco can work nicely, although the flavor profile will change slightly.
  • Is it necessary to use both lemon and lime?You can opt to use just one, depending on which you prefer. Both lend a zesty freshness.
  • Can I make this sangria in advance?Certainly! You can make it a couple of hours in advance and let it cool in the fridge. Make sure to add the club soda or sparkling water just before you serve it so that it stays fizzy.
  • What can I use as a substitute for peach schnapps?Peach juice or nectar could take the place of the alcohol in a non-alcoholic version; you could use another fruity liqueur if you prefer to keep the alcohol in.
  • How long should the sangria be refrigerated before serving?The ideal method for combining the flavors is to refrigerate it for a minimum of 1-2 hours.
  • Can I use frozen fruit instead of fresh? Yes, frozen fruit can be used, and it will help keep the sangria cold longer, but the texture might be different.
  • What is simple syrup, and can I make it at home?Simple syrup is made up of equal parts sugar and water, which are heated until the sugar dissolves. You can whip up a batch at home in no time: Mix sugar and water in a pot, bring it to a rolling boil, and then let it cool before using.

Substitutions and Variations

You can substitute with rosé wine for a different flavor profile in place of dry white wine.
Peach schnapps: Replace with apricot brandy or equal parts peach juice if you want a non-alcoholic version.
Brandy: You can substitute cognac or a fruit liqueur like Grand Marnier.
Plain syrup: Opt for honey or agave nectar if you’re after more sweetness and a different flavor profile.
Soda water or sparkling water: If you prefer something a little sweeter and more citrusy, you can use lemon-lime soda instead.

Pro Tips

1. Chill Your Ingredients Before preparing the sangria, make sure all your ingredients, especially the wine, club soda, and fruits, are well-chilled. This will help your sangria taste fresher and more refreshing.

2. Muddle the Fruit for Enhanced Flavor Lightly muddle (press and twist) some of the fruits such as peaches and strawberries before adding them into the pitcher. This will release their juices, enhancing the fruity flavors in the sangria.

3. Use Fresh Juice For added flavor depth, consider adding a splash of fresh orange juice to the mixture. It complements the other fruits and adds another layer of citrusy sweetness.

4. Adjust the Sweetness Taste the mixture before refrigerating, and adjust the amount of simple syrup to suit your preference. Some may prefer a sweeter sangria, while others might enjoy a more subtle sweetness.

5. Experiment with Additional Herbs Consider adding a sprig of fresh mint or basil to the sangria pitcher for an aromatic twist. These herbs pair well with fruit and can add an extra refreshing element to the drink.
