Crown Royal Peach Sangria Ingredients
- 750 mL bottle of pinot grigio or Moscato wine (or peach moscato)
- 2-3 fresh peaches
- 1 lemon
- ¼ cup peach simple syrup (optional)
- ¼ cup triple sec (or another orange liqueur)
- 1 cup peach juice or nectar (or a blend; I like to use Simply Peach juice)
- ½ cup Crown Royal peach whisky
- Ice cubes
For a Single Serving:
- 2 ounces whiskey
- ½ ounce triple sec
- ½ ounce simple syrup (optional)
- 2 ounces juice
- 2-3 ounces white wine (to top glass)
- Few slices of fresh fruit
Ingredient Tips and Substitutions
- Honestly, any white wine works fine (but I personally like pinot grigio with this), so you can adjust for personal tastes. Look for something with notes of peach for best results in pairing with this sangria!
- Feel free to try different fresh fruits instead of peaches and lemons. Strawberries and apples are other great choices that pair well with this white sangria
- The simple syrup is optional for personal tastes. If you use a very sweet wine or have very ripe fruit, you may not need it (with the pinot, I add it, and do not find the drink overly sweet). You can also substitute other sweeteners, like regular simple syrup, honey, or agave instead
- For a fizzy version, you can substitute ginger beer or ginger ale for some of the wine or peach juice (since you should still get peach flavor from the whiskey)
How to Make Crown Royal Peach Sangria
- Wash and slice your fruit, then add it to a 2-qt pitcher or carafe
- Pour in the wine, whiskey, triple sec, peach juice, and simple syrup (if using), then stir gently to mix

- Add ice and a few slices of the soaked fruit to individual glasses, pour in sangria, and enjoy!
