Ingredients

Optional additions:

Instructions

  • Prepare the fruit. Wash all fresh fruit thoroughly.
  • Slice the peach and pear into thin wedges. Cut the orange into rounds or half-moons.
  • Mix the base. In your punch bowl or pitcher, combine the peach nectar, pear juice, orange juice, and lemon juice. Stir well.
  • Add sweetener. Mix in the honey or agave syrup.
  • If using honey, you may want to dissolve it in a small amount of warm water first to help it blend more easily.
  • Chill the mixture. Refrigerate the juice mixture for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to blend.
  • Add carbonation. Just before serving, gently stir in the ginger ale or sparkling water to maintain the fizz.
  • Add fruit and ice. Add the sliced fruit to the punch and fill with ice.
  • Reserve some fruit slices for garnishing individual glasses.
  • Garnish and serve. Float mint leaves on top of the punch. Serve in glasses with additional fruit garnish on the rim.

Notes

This recipe serves approximately 8-10 people.
For a stronger fruit flavor, you can puree some additional peaches and pears and add them to the mixture. Strain the puree first to remove any pulp.
For a make-ahead option, combine all non-carbonated ingredients and refrigerate up to 24 hours. Add the ginger ale or sparkling water just before serving.
The punch can be easily modified for different seasons.
In summer, add strawberries or raspberries. In fall, use apple cider instead of pear juice and add a cinnamon stick.
For a more adult version, this can be turned into a cocktail by adding 1 cup of prosecco or white wine to the mixture. You can also create frozen versions by blending the mixture with ice.

Tasting Notes

This Peach Pear Punch Mocktail offers a bright and refreshing flavor profile that balances sweetness with subtle tartness.

The first sip delivers a wave of juicy peach notes, followed by the mellow sweetness of ripe pear.

These fruit flavors blend harmoniously without either one overpowering the other.

A hint of citrus adds a pleasant zing that prevents the drink from becoming too sweet.

The light effervescence from the sparkling water creates a crisp mouthfeel that makes this mocktail especially thirst-quenching.

Flavor Profile:

  • Primary: Sweet peach, mellow pear
  • Secondary: Citrus brightness
  • Finish: Clean, refreshing with gentle bubbles

The mocktail has a natural sweetness that doesn’t taste artificial.

It works well as a morning or afternoon drink, and its fruity character makes it appealing year-round.

The color is a soft peachy-yellow that varies in intensity depending on the ripeness of the fruit used.

When garnished with a fresh peach slice or pear fan, the visual appeal adds to the overall experience.

This mocktail pairs nicely with light appetizers, brunch dishes, or can stand alone as a festive alcohol-free option at gatherings.

Must Have Ingredients

Substitutes

Can’t find all the ingredients for the Peach Pear Punch Mocktail? No problem! Here are some easy swaps to try.

For peach nectar, use apricot nectar or peach juice. You can also blend fresh peaches with a bit of water and sugar.

Pear juice can be replaced with apple juice or white grape juice. These options provide a similar mild sweetness to the drink.

Fruit Substitutes:

If you need a non-carbonated version, replace sparkling water with regular water or white tea. The drink will be less fizzy but still tasty.

For a lower sugar option, use diet lemon-lime soda instead of regular soda. You can also reduce the amount of fruit juices and add more sparkling water.

For a different flavor profile, add a splash of coconut water or a squeeze of lime instead of lemon juice.
