Easy Peach Sangria Recipe

The first time I made this Peach Sangria was for my friend's bridal shower. I knew the crowd were not big drinkers, but I wanted to have an easy-to-sip drink on hand just in case. I wanted it to be super simple to make, so I threw in some peaches and raspberries, poured a bottle of wine over it and called it a day.

That lasted about five minutes. I was shocked! So I poured another bottle of wine over the remaining fruit, and another and another. I've since learned that this peachy sangria is a hit at parties because it's sweet, light, and filled with summer flavors.

Since that party, I've refined this recipe even more. Since then, I've updated my recipe a little bit which has made it even better. I've made this probably 50 times and it's always slurped right up. And I've even made lots of variations like Spiced Cranberry Sangria for the holidays. So trust me when I say: Sangria is always a hit!

Ingredients

Gather these simple ingredients to make this peach white sangria recipe - you can find them easily!

• Peaches: Fresh or frozen both work here!
• Raspberries: Tart raspberries balance out the sweetness of the wine, peaches and syrup. You can add any other fresh fruit that you like, too. Blueberries, strawberries, apples and blackberries would be delicious.
• Moscato wine: Another sweet white wine like Riesling will work well. Use a drier white wine like Chardonnay or Pinot Grigio if you prefer a less sweet drink.
• Ginger ale: Sprite or ginger beer would work too. You could use diet ginger ale, flavored sparkling water or plain club soda for a lighter version. Use prosecco if you want more of a kick!
• Peach simple syrup: You can make this yourself with water, sugar and more peach slices.

Instructions

First, we've got to make the peach simple syrup. It works perfectly for infusing some extra sweetness and signature peach taste into the sangria.

1. To make peach simple syrup, grab a few fresh or frozen peach slices. In a small saucepan, combine sugar, water and peaches. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool. (Strain if desired, but you can throw them right into the sangria.)
2. Once you have the syrup, you can make the sangria! In a large pitcher, add raspberries and frozen sliced peaches. Pour in the wine and ginger ale, then add the cooled peach syrup. Stir well. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.

Tips for Success

• You'll definitely want to multiply the recipe a few times if you're expecting a crowd.
• If you need a non-alcoholic drink to serve your guests, try this Raspberry Iced Tea that will pair perfectly with your sangria.
• For a stronger drink, add 1 cup vodka. Peach schnapps could work, but it's very sweet.

What to Serve with Peach Sangria

Sangria is Spanish, so it goes well with traditional recipes. Tapas like pan con tomate or hearty summer dishes like seafood paella would go well with this peach sangria.

Of course, anything peach would go well! For dessert, make one of my favorites peach crisp or peach cobbler. (I love them both and can't choose just one.) Or just enjoy fresh peaches with ice cream and a little peach syrup on top if you like!

If you want to have a few cocktails on the menu in addition to this sangria, try this Tom Collins punch and spiked watermelon lemonade, because YUM.
