White peach sangria recipe
White peach sangria is one of the best non-alcoholic drinks for summer. It combines the crispness of white wine with ripe peaches and is enhanced with citrus flavors like lemon or lime, and a touch of simple syrup. This delightful drink is light, fruity, and perfect for sipping poolside or at a backyard gathering. I love how refreshing it is on a hot day.
The white wine provides a crisp, acidic base that balances the sweetness of the peach nectar and fruit. Light, effervescent, and slightly floral, this sangria is a crowd-pleaser, ideal for brunches, picnics, or poolside sipping.
This sangria pairs beautifully with desserts like panna cotta with berry compote, peach sorbet, and lemon bars, which highlight its fruity sweetness. Almond biscotti and fresh fruit tart also complement the drink’s refreshing notes.
For brunch or appetizers, try Quiche Lorraine, French toast with fresh berries, or smoked salmon bagels. You can also pair the drink with Caprese salad, prosciutto-wrapped melon, and goat cheese crostini with peach compote. Main courses include grilled lemon herb chicken, pan-seared scallops with peach salsa, and peach and Burrata flatbread.
