Ingredients

For about 12 servings, gather:

Use ripe peaches for the best flavor. Frozen fruit can work too if fresh isn’t available.

Instructions

Chill all ingredients before starting.

  • Slice the peaches thinly.
  • In the punch bowl, mix peach nectar, schnapps, and simple syrup.
  • Add the champagne slowly to keep the fizz.
  • Stir gently with the long spoon.
  • Float peach slices and raspberries on top.
  • Add ice just before serving to keep the drink cold without watering it down.

Serve right away in chilled glasses. The punch tastes best when fresh.

    Notes

    This recipe is easy to adjust. For a stronger drink, add more schnapps. For less alcohol, use more peach nectar.
    You can make it ahead of time. Mix everything except the champagne and fruit. Add those just before serving.
    For a non-alcoholic version, replace the champagne with ginger ale or sparkling cider.
    Be careful not to overmix. Too much stirring will make the champagne go flat.

    Tasting Notes

    This peach champagne punch offers a delightful blend of flavors. The drink has a light, bubbly texture from the champagne. Its taste is sweet and fruity, with peach as the main flavor.

    The punch has a soft pink color. It looks pretty in a glass, making it nice for parties. When you sip it, you first notice the fizzy bubbles. Then the peach flavor comes through.

    The drink is not too strong. It has a mild alcohol taste that doesn’t overpower the fruit. Some people might pick up hints of other fruits like strawberry or orange. This depends on the exact recipe used.

    The punch is best served cold. Ice cubes help keep it chilly and add to the refreshing feel.

    As you drink it, the flavors stay balanced. The sweetness doesn’t become too much, even as you finish the glass.

    For food pairings, this cocktail goes well with light snacks. Try it with fruit salad, cheese, or small sandwiches. The drink’s lightness makes it good for warm weather or outdoor events.

    Must Have Ingredients

    Substitute

    Peach schnapps can replace champagne in this punch recipe. It adds similar fruity notes and sweetness. For a non-alcoholic version, use peach nectar or white grape juice instead.

    Ginger ale makes a bubbly substitute for champagne. It brings fizz and a mild flavor that complements the other ingredients. Sparkling cider is another option for those who want a non-alcoholic drink with bubbles.

    For a twist on the classic recipe, try using prosecco or cava. These sparkling wines offer unique flavors while maintaining the cocktail’s effervescence.

    Here’s a quick list of possible substitutes:

    When you swap out champagne, adjust other ingredients to balance the sweetness and alcohol content. Start with small amounts and taste as you go to find the right mix for your preferences.
