- Add more fruit: Peaches are the star, but a few extra summer fruits wouldn’t hurt! Toss sliced strawberries and limes into the sangria for extra color. A handful of fresh mint would make this peach sangria recipe completely refreshing—a summer must.
- Make a white peach sangria: Yes, you can use other types of peaches than just yellow peaches. White peaches have a blush-colored skin and white flesh that’s sweeter and juicer than yellow peaches. We love how elegant white peach slices look bobbing in a white peach sangria.
- Sub the sparkling water: Replace the plain sparkling water with Sprite for a lemon-lime kick or ginger ale for a pleasant, zippy ginger taste. Or, make the peach sangria a bit more boozy and sub the sparkling water for Prosecco or peach-flavored alcoholic seltzers.
How to Store Peach Sangria
Store leftover peach sangria in the fridge for up to two days. Keep in mind, though, that the sparkling water will fall flat, and the peaches will break down slightly.
Can I make peach sangria ahead of time?
Yes! In fact, you must make peach sangria ahead of time before serving. The ingredients need time to meld together and chill thoroughly. Our recipe recommends one hour in the fridge, but you could mix it up and store it in the fridge the day before serving. Just remember to cover the pitcher with storage wrap so the sangria doesn’t absorb any funky fridge smells.
Peach Sangria Tips
What do I serve with peach sangria?
Peach sangria is a sweet drink and is best served with desserts—especially peach desserts! Go the classic route with a peach crumble pie or an easy peach cobbler. This peachy summer cheesecake is absolute heaven. We also love these innovative peach cobbler cookies and these ultra-summery grilled peach sundaes.
What should I use if I can’t find peach schnapps?
If you can’t find peach schnapps, use one of your favorite vodka brands. Peach-flavored vodka or vanilla vodka work perfectly.
