This Chilled Peach Moscato Sangria is a refreshing and fruity drink perfect for warm days or casual gatherings. Combining fresh berries and stone fruits with sweet Moscato, it offers a light, bubbly treat that’s easy to prepare and sure to impress.

Ingredients

• 6 ounces fresh raspberries (around 1 cup, with extra for topping)
• 16 ounces fresh strawberries (2 cups, hulled and sliced, with extra for topping)
• 2 ripe peaches, nectarines, or oranges (sliced)
• 1 chilled 750 ml bottle of Moscato (white or pink)
• 1/2 cup triple sec or Chambord
• 1/2 cup peach or pineapple juice
• Ginger ale, soda water, or ginger beer to top

Instructions

1. Step 1: Add the fresh raspberries, sliced strawberries, and sliced peaches (or nectarines/oranges) to the bottom of a large pitcher.
2. Step 2: Pour the chilled Moscato, triple sec or Chambord, and peach or pineapple juice over the fruit in the pitcher.
3. Step 3: Stir gently to combine all the flavors without bruising the fruit.
4. Step 4: Place the pitcher in the refrigerator and let the sangria chill for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld.
5. Step 5: For deeper flavor, let it chill overnight, but do not exceed 24 hours to keep the fruit fresh.
6. Step 6: When ready to serve, pour the sangria into wine glasses until they are about three-quarters full, including some of the soaked fruit.
7. Step 7: Top each glass with ginger ale, soda water, or ginger beer for a refreshing fizzy finish.

Tips & Variations

• Use frozen fruit instead of fresh to keep the sangria chilled longer without watering it down.
• Swap triple sec or Chambord with orange liqueur for a citrusy twist.
• For a less sweet option, use soda water instead of ginger ale or ginger beer to top the sangria.
• Experiment with seasonal fruits like blueberries or blackberries for added flavor and color.

Storage

Store the sangria covered in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. It’s best enjoyed within that time frame to maintain freshness and fruit texture. If leftovers remain, stir gently before serving again and add fresh ginger ale or soda water to refresh the fizz.

How to Serve

Serve this delicious recipe with your favorite sides.

FAQs

Can I prepare this sangria ahead of time?

Yes, preparing it a few hours ahead or overnight enhances the flavors. Just be sure not to exceed 24 hours to keep the fruit fresh and vibrant.

What can I use if I don’t have Moscato wine?

You can substitute Moscato with another sweet white wine like Riesling or a light rosé. Adjust the sweetness by adding a bit more fruit juice if needed.
