A light and easy white wine sangria featuring ripe peaches and floral elderflower liqueur, perfect for refreshing summer gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 750 ml (25 oz) dry white wine (Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio recommended)
  • 2 large ripe peaches, thinly sliced
  • 3 oz (90 ml) elderflower liqueur (e.g., St-Germain)
  • 1 cup (240 ml) club soda or sparkling water
  • 2 tbsp (30 ml) fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp (30 ml) simple syrup (optional)
  • A handful of fresh mint leaves
  • Ice cubes

Instructions

  1. Wash and thinly slice 2 large ripe peaches about 1/8 inch (3 mm) thick. Set aside.
  2. In a large pitcher, pour 750 ml (25 oz) of dry white wine. Add 3 oz (90 ml) elderflower liqueur and 2 tbsp (30 ml) freshly squeezed lemon juice. Stir gently.
  3. Taste the mixture and add 2 tbsp (30 ml) simple syrup if additional sweetness is desired. Stir gently.
  4. Add sliced peaches and a handful of fresh mint leaves to the pitcher. Stir gently to combine without bruising the fruit.
  5. Cover the pitcher and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, ideally 4 hours, to allow flavors to meld.
  6. Just before serving, gently stir in 1 cup (240 ml) chilled club soda or sparkling water for a refreshing fizz.
  7. Serve over ice cubes, ensuring some peach slices and mint leaves are included in each glass. Garnish with a sprig of mint or a thin peach slice.

Notes

Use a quality dry white wine like Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio for best flavor. Thinly slice peaches to release flavor without making the sangria mushy. Chill for at least 2 hours to allow flavors to meld; longer chilling (up to 4 hours) is ideal. Add sparkling water just before serving to maintain fizz. Adjust sweetness with simple syrup after chilling if needed. Frozen peaches can be used if thawed and drained. For a non-alcoholic version, substitute white grape juice and elderflower syrup for wine and liqueur.
