Ingredients
Fruits
- 3 cups sliced peaches
- 2 cups raspberries
Liquids
- 750 mL Pinot Grigio wine
- 1 cup simple syrup
- 1 cup peach schnapps
- 750 mL champagne
Instructions
- Prepare fruit: Add the sliced peaches and raspberries to a large pitcher, ensuring the fruit is evenly distributed for flavor infusion.
- Mix liquids: Pour the Pinot Grigio, simple syrup, and peach schnapps into the pitcher with the fruit. Stir gently but thoroughly to combine all ingredients.
- Chill mixture: Cover the pitcher and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and develop fully.
- Serve sangria: When ready to serve, place some of the fruit from the pitcher into a wine glass. Fill the glass halfway with the chilled sangria mixture, then top off with champagne to add sparkle. Serve immediately and enjoy.
Notes
- Simple syrup can be made by dissolving equal parts sugar and water over low heat until clear and cooled before use.
- For a less sweet sangria, adjust the amount of simple syrup to taste or substitute with a sugar-free alternative.
- Using fresh, ripe peaches and raspberries will provide the best flavor and natural sweetness.
- Chilling the sangria overnight enhances the fruit infusion but a minimum of 1 hour is sufficient.
- This recipe can be doubled for larger parties or scaled down as needed.
