Why we love this white peach sangria recipe
This sangria is one of the best batched cocktails to serve this summer. It’s about as refreshing and light as a sangria can be, making it perfect for hot summer days.
You only need a few ingredients and some chopping skills to prepare this simple sangria, and it’s easy to have ready ahead of time when you know you’ll be entertaining.
If you’ve made a Charlie Chaplin cocktail, you probably already have some apricot brandy in your liquor cabinet. Why not use it for this recipe too? The stone fruit flavor translates really well with the peaches in this sangria.

Equipment
Ingredients & substitutions
- White wine – Vouvray is the option we chose for white wine, but a sauvignon blanc is also a great options. Using a fruit forward wine in this recipe helps bring out the peach flavors.
- Peach nectar – We made our own peach nectar, but you can save some time and use store bought.
- Apricot brandy – I used apricot brandy, but you can use peach brandy if you’re buying a bottle specifically for this recipe. You can also substitute a peach schnapps or a triple sec if you prefer a lighter sangria.
How to make white peach sangria
Make the peach nectar. Blend peaches with a little sugar, water and lemon juice for a little extra flavor pop. If your blender doesn’t get it super smooth, feel free to strain. You can also buy peach nectar at the store. Our store was out, so we made our own.
Make your sangria. Add the wine, brandy, and peach nectar to a large pitcher. Stir in peaches and slices strawberries. Cover the pitcher and refrigerate until cold.
Add some bubbles. Before serving, add 1 small bottle of ginger beer (or club soda) to the pitcher. Serve over ice and scoop some fruit for each serving.
Everything you need to know about white sangria
White rum, vodka, peach schnapps, elderflower liqueur are all good options if you don’t love brandy. Keep in mind: We used apricot brandy for this recipe which is lighter and sweeter than a regular brandy.
We recommend using a wine that is fruit forward.
Sauvignon blanc has a crisp flavor, with bright citrus flavors – the acidity of the wine balances out the sweetness of the fruits and peach nectar.
Adding fruit to sangria is not just for a pretty presentation, the fruit pieces infuse their flavor into the sangria as they sit in the liquids. For a minimum we would recommend adding them at least 30 minutes prior to serving so they have the opportunity to macerate. The longer the fruit sits, the more the flavor will intensify.
