I made a jug of this up for New Years Eve and it went down a treat! It’s probably a total abomination of Sangria to add the peach schnapps, but it was a lovely addition. It’s been really hot these last few days so I’m sure another jug will be chilling in our fridge soon enough.
Peach Sangria
makes about 2 litres
1 peach, sliced
1 orange, cut into quarters and sliced
1/3 cup Orange liqueur (cointreau, curacao or triple sec)
1/3 cup peach schnapps (if you don’t have this, add more orange liqueur)
1 bottle dry red, I used Shiraz
2 tbsp sugar
1 bottle soda or sparkling water
Put peach and orange slices into a jug and add Orange liqueur, peach schnapps, red wine and sugar. Stir gently until the sugar dissolves. Put in the fridge to chill until ready to serve.
To serve, top with soda water and stir gently. Check for sweetness and add some more sugar if you like.

Hi, I make my Portuguese Sangria in a similar way, you can also add cinammon sticks, diced apples and instead of soda water, use 7-up and it will be even more yummy!!! And we always use a wooden spoon to mix the ingredients…a plastic one is also ok, but never, ever a metalic one!

Apple sounds lovely! And good idea with the wooden spoon too.
