Make this light, fruity white sangria recipe using sweet Moscato wine and fresh seasonal berries for your next gathering or boozy brunch.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (750 ml) bottle chilled Moscato wine
  • 1 cup peach schnapps
  • 1/2 cup brandy
  • 1/4 cup orange juice, fresh squeezed
  • 1/4 cup simple syrup
  • 1 cup sliced strawberries
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 cup sliced peaches or nectarines
  • 1 orange, thinly sliced
  • 1 lemon, thinly sliced

Instructions

  1. In a large pitcher, combine the chilled Moscato wine, peach schnapps, brandy, orange juice, and simple syrup. Stir gently to mix the liquids.
  2. Add the sliced strawberries, blueberries, peaches or nectarines, orange slices, and lemon slices to the pitcher.
  3. Stir the fruit mixture into the wine base.
  4. Cover the pitcher and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to 4 hours, to allow the fruit flavors to infuse. Do not chill longer than 4 hours, or the fruit may become too soft.
  5. When ready to serve, stir the sangria again. Serve over ice in wine glasses, making sure each glass gets some of the fruit.

Notes

  • For a brighter flavor, substitute the simple syrup with 1/4 cup of lemon-lime soda added just before serving.
  • This is a great summer pitcher cocktail; use whatever seasonal berries you have available.
  • If you prefer a less sweet drink, reduce the simple syrup to 2 tablespoons.
