White Wine Summer Sangria Spritzer
Description
The White Wine Summer Sangria Spritzer recipe starts by soaking diced peaches and chopped pitted cherries in Sauvignon Blanc wine, combined with vodka, and refrigerated for one to two hours to let the flavors meld. This maceration softens the fruit and infuses the alcohol with natural fruit sweetness and color. After chilling, the mixture is transferred to a sangria jug along with additional white wine and lemon-lime soda, which lends effervescence and a bright, citrusy element.
The drink’s flavor profile balances the dry wine’s crispness with the juicy sweetness of peaches and cherries, enhanced by the vodka’s kick and the soda’s bubbles. Serving it with fresh whole cherries on the rim adds a festive touch and hints at the fruity content within. The pale pink tint given by the cherries makes it visually appealing.
This sangria spritzer is ideal for summer gatherings or casual sipping on warm days, offering a fruit-forward yet light alternative to heavier cocktails. The recipe encourages customization by swapping in preferred fruits, allowing adjustment of sweetness and flavor accents to personal taste.
Ingredients
- 1 bottle white wine cold (I used Sauvignon Blanc, dry
- 2 medium peaches organic, peeled
- ½ cup Cherry pitted, cut into pieces
- 4 oz vodka or lemon flavored vodka, Citroen
- 12 oz lemon-lime soda natural, cold (or soda water for less sugar/sweetness)
- 6 Cherry fresh, whole cherries, with stems
Instructions
- Cut the peaches into nibble sized pieces, place in a bowl and add the chopped cherries. Pour enough white wine over into the bowl to cover the fruit.
- Add the vodka, cover and refrigerate for one to two hours.
- In a sangria jug, place the macerated fruit, the remaining white wine, and the lemon lime soda. Stir gently (the cherries will give the sangria/spritzer a lovely pink tint).
- Pour into glasses and adorn the rim of each glass with a cherry (cut a slit in the bottom of each cherry and push onto the rim of the glass).
Notes
- Customize this cocktail by using your favorite seasonal fruits for maceration.
- Refrigerate the mixture long enough to let the fruit flavors infuse the wine and vodka, typically 1–2 hours.
- Use lemon-lime soda for sweetness and fizz or substitute with soda water for a less sweet version.
- Chill all ingredients before mixing to maintain a crisp, refreshing drink.
