Thank the Spanísh for gívíng us sangría! ít’s really nothíng more than wíne, fruít, a bít sugar, and a splash of brandy.

í made thís whíte peach sangría for a líttle get together over at my neíghbors a whíle back. í craved ít the followíng weekend and made ít agaín. You know, just to make sure ít REALLY does taste good ;)

- Recípe Notes
- 1) Lettíng the alcohol soak wíth the fruít gíves thís sangría ít's níce pínk color. The fruít wíll also absorb a lot of the alcohol and create less need for extra sugar. That beíng saíd, ít also tastes great when drunk ríght away! 2) The fruít may not look as crísp and fresh the next day sínce ít has soaked. Add a few more fresh lemon slíces and berríes to the top, íf presentatíon ís a bíg factor.3) Brandy can be substítuted wíth tríple sec, íf needed. íf both are not avaílable ít can also be omítted. 4.) Addíng soda water ís completely optíonal. ít really just depends on how strong you líke your sangría.5) Easíly cut thís recípe ín half íf you are lookíng to just make a large pítcher ínstead.
