White Peach Sangria is everything you want in a summer cocktail. Crisp white wine, juicy ripe peaches, peach nectar, and a splash of peach schnapps for triple the peach flavor. It’s light, fruity, and just sweet enough without ever crossing into syrupy territory!
White Peach Sangria is the Perfect Summer Drink! 🍑
I’ve made a lot of sangrias over the years, and the thing that makes this one stand out is that I
use both peach nectar AND peach schnapps. Most peach sangria recipes use one or the other, but doubling up gives you that real, juicy peach flavor that doesn’t taste fake.
Here’s the thing you should really know about sangria: the longer it sits, the better it gets. I always try to make this at least a few hours ahead. If you can let it chill overnight, even better. But honestly, even an hour in the fridge will get you a great glass.

Jessica’s Tips
- Choose a crisp and dry white wine. I love Sauvignon Blanc, but Pinot Grigio also works great. Skip Moscato or sweet whites because the peach nectar and sugar already bring plenty of sweetness.
- Use real peach nectar, not peach juice. Peach nectar is thicker and more concentrated, with a richer peach flavor. Goya is the easiest brand to find. Check the juice aisle or the Latin and international foods section.
- Add seltzer per glass, not in the pitcher. This is the biggest tip I have. If you stir seltzer into the whole pitcher, it goes flat in 30 minutes. Top each individual glass instead, and every pour stays bubbly.
Recipe Help – Frequently Asked Questions
Yes! Frozen peaches actually work great because they help keep the sangria cold without watering it down like ice does. No need to thaw them first. Just toss them right in.
If you can’t find peach nectar, peach juice will work but the flavor won’t be as concentrated. You could also blend a fresh peach with a splash of water and strain it for a homemade nectar.
I love mixing in strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries. You can also add sliced
nectarines, plums, or even fresh mint leaves for a little herbal note.
At least 1 hour, but the longer the better (up to 12 hours). The chill time lets the wine, sugar, and peach flavors meld together. Past 12 hours, the wine starts losing its freshness.
One pitcher serves about 6 glasses. For a bigger crowd, you can easily double or triple the recipe.
It’s lighter than a typical cocktail because it’s wine-based with just a splash of schnapps. One pitcher has about a bottle of wine plus a quarter cup of schnapps, spread across 6 glasses.

Can I just add the seltzer in the pitcher so guests can just pour and not need to mix?
Hi Tara! Yes, but only do this if you are serving it immediately. If poured and left to sit, the seltzer will go flat and loose all the bubbles.
Is club soda the same as seltzer? If not what brand seltzer did you use?
Hi Heather! They are extremely similar, except club soda has added minerals. Feel free to use club soda instead!
Barefoot Moscato would be delish with this !! Thanks for the recipe

You can skip it, but it is really helps to boost the peach flavor.
