Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 bottle chilled sweet Moscato wine (750 ml)
  • 3 ripe peaches, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup white grape juice or soda water (adjust for preferred fizz)
  • 1 lemon, thinly sliced
  • 1 lime, thinly sliced
  • Fresh mint leaves (a handful, some bruised for infusion, some for garnish)

Optional Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup peach schnapps or brandy (for extra peach flavor and a stronger kick)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the fruit: Wash and thinly slice the peaches, lemons, and limes. Set aside some fresh mint leaves for garnish, and lightly bruise a few leaves to release their flavor into the sangria.
  2. Combine the ingredients: In a large pitcher, pour the chilled Moscato wine and add the sliced peaches, lemon, lime, and bruised mint leaves. Pour in a splash of white grape juice or soda water for a light fizz, adjusting to taste.
  3. Add optional spirits: If desired, mix in peach schnapps or brandy to deepen the peach flavor and give the sangria a bit more strength.
  4. Chill and infuse: Refrigerate the mixture for at least two hours, preferably longer or overnight, allowing the flavors of the fruit, herbs, and wine to meld beautifully.
  5. Serve over ice: When ready, pour the sangria over ice in glasses and garnish with fresh mint sprigs and extra peach slices for a stunning presentation.

Notes

  • Use ripe peaches for the sweetest and juiciest flavor.
  • Chill all ingredients beforehand to avoid excess ice dilution.
  • Let the sangria rest overnight for more intense flavor infusion.
  • Do not overcrowd the pitcher with fruit to allow easy stirring and optimal flavor release.
  • Adjust sweetness at the end if needed by adding a little honey or simple syrup.
