as needed

Club soda

1 cup

Simple syrup

1/2 cup

Lemon

1, sliced

Orange

1, sliced

Ripe peaches

Instructions

1. In a large pitcher, combine the white wine, sliced peaches, orange slices, lemon slices, and simple syrup.
2. Stir the mixture thoroughly to ensure that the simple syrup is well incorporated.
3. Refrigerate the mixture for at least 2 hours. This allows time for the fruit to infuse the wine with its sweet, tangy flavors.
4. Just before serving, add the club soda to the pitcher and stir gently. The club soda gives the sangria a refreshing, fizzy lift.
5. To serve, fill glasses with ice. Pour the peach sangria over the ice, ensuring each glass gets a good amount of the fruity pieces.
6. Garnish each glass with a few fresh mint leaves for a touch of brightness and a pop of color.
