This Peach Rosé Sangria is a fun and refreshing drink perfect for hot days! It’s made with sweet peaches, bubbly rosé wine, and a splash of refreshing soda.
It’s so easy to whip up—just mix everything in a big pitcher and let it chill. I love serving it with extra peach slices for a pretty touch. Cheers to summer! 🍑🥂
Key Ingredients & Substitutions
Rosé Wine: Choose a good-quality rosé that you enjoy drinking. You can substitute it with white wine or even a fruity red if you prefer a bolder flavor. I find that a dry rosé balances nicely with the sweetness from the fruit.
Peach Nectar: This adds sweetness and that peachy goodness! If you don’t have peach nectar, you can blend fresh peaches with a bit of water to create your own puree. It’s a fun and fresh alternative.
Peach Schnapps: This is optional but adds a great flavor boost. If you want to skip it, you can increase the peach nectar or use a dash of another fruity liqueur like apricot brandy. For a non-alcoholic option, just stick to the nectar!
Fresh Raspberries: These are tasty, but you can swap them for other berries like strawberries or blackberries if you like. Both work wonderfully and bring a pop of color!
How Do I Create the Perfect Chill for My Sangria?
Chilling your sangria allows the flavors to blend and enhances the refreshing taste. Here are some tips for getting it right:
- Start with cold rosé wine and chilled sparkling water; it helps your sangria stay cool longer.
- Let it sit in the fridge for at least an hour so the fruits infuse the wine. The longer, the better!
- When serving, always add ice to the glasses. This not only keeps your drink cool but also highlights the fruit!

FAQ for Refreshing Peach Rosé Sangria
Can I Use Frozen Peaches or Raspberries?
Yes, frozen peaches and raspberries work great! Just make sure to thaw them slightly before adding them to the sangria. This helps to release their flavors while avoiding excess ice that can dilute your drink.
How Long Can I Keep Sangria in the Fridge?
It’s best to enjoy your sangria within 1-2 days. The fruit flavors will intensify in the first 24 hours, but after that, the fruits may start to break down and become mushy. Always store it in an airtight container to keep it fresh!
Can I Make This Sangria Non-Alcoholic?
Absolutely! Simply omit the rosé wine and peach schnapps, and replace them with extra peach nectar or juice, along with sparkling water. This gives you a delicious and refreshing mocktail that everyone can enjoy!
What’s the Best Way to Serve This Sangria?
Serve the sangria in chilled glasses filled with ice. This keeps your drink cold and refreshing. Feel free to garnish with additional fruit slices or fresh mint for an extra touch!
