Tasting Notes
White peach sangria offers a bright, sweet taste with subtle floral notes. Fresh peaches bring natural sweetness, while white wine adds crisp acidity.
The first sip reveals layers of fruit flavors. Ripe peaches blend smoothly with hints of citrus from the orange slices and lemon juice.
Key Flavor Elements:
- Sweet white peaches
- Crisp white wine
- Fresh citrus
- Light floral undertones
The drink starts sweet and ends with a clean, refreshing finish. Its light body makes it perfect for warm weather sipping.
The carbonation from club soda creates tiny bubbles that dance on the tongue. This adds a pleasant fizzy texture to each sip.
Serving Temperature: Best enjoyed well chilled at 38-45°F (3-7°C)
The drink’s pale peachy-pink color matches its gentle fruit flavors. As it sits, the fruits infuse more deeply into the wine, creating richer taste notes.
Garnishing with mint leaves adds an optional cool, fresh aroma that complements the fruit flavors nicely.
Substitute
White wine forms the base of this sangria recipe. A dry Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc works well as alternatives to the recommended white wine.
For the white peach puree, canned peaches offer a good backup option. Yellow peaches can replace white peaches, though the color will be slightly different.
Simple syrup can be swapped with honey or agave nectar. Use about 3/4 the amount called for when making this switch.
Club soda adds the fizzy element. Sprite or ginger ale can step in, but reduce the simple syrup since these are already sweet.
Fresh fruits for garnish are flexible:
- Nectarines
- Apricots
- Plums
- Green grapes
- Apple slices
Non-alcoholic version: Replace the wine with white grape juice and add an extra splash of club soda. The taste stays similar while making it family-friendly.
For a stronger drink, add 1/2 cup of peach schnapps or brandy to the mix. This creates a more potent cocktail while keeping the peachy notes.
