I've made this several times and it's always a hit. When I can't find peach nectar, I substitute apricot necar and add a splash of peach tree schnapps. For a more intense basil flavor, I usually make my basil syrup several hours ahead of time and let it sit before straining out the basil. I serve over ice and garnish with a small sprig of fresh basil.

I always use less sugar..most recipes are too sweet. Made this for my best friends wedding shower...the girls all loved it and so much more economical than having to serve many bottles of expensive wine...I did use a good quality "black box" wine..and some bottles of good pinot grigio...the basil (from my garden) makes it very interesting...used "Looza" Peach nectar

Everyone loved it, I had a party with the sangria as an option to drink, before you knew it it was all gone and I had made a double batch, but when I made it I used 1/2 cup sugar(for each batch),1/2 peach nectar (goya), 1/2 pear nectar, and I also threw in some peachtree schnapps I also added fresh ripe peaches, strawberries, grapes and let sit overnight. Delish!!!!!

This was delicious! Brought to a tapas party and everyone loved it. I used 1/4 cup raw sugar and a bottle of riesling. Wouldn't have changed another thing.

Great find! Serving it at an early morning wedding outside. The couple wanted an alternative to mimosas and after they tried this recipe...they were sold. This drink is light and tasty. I did cut the sugar to 1/3 c and another batch had no sugar at all...only 3 T of honey. Delicious!

I was looking for a light/refreshing/fruity cocktail to serve at a party and I found this one. The basil is not overpowering, but a very nice complement to the fruit in this drink. Sometimes it is hard to find peach nectar, or somtimes it is bland or kind of metallic tasting when you buy it in a can, so we used half mango nectar and half peach. I served it with cheap magnum sized bottles of chardonnay (nothing too sweet) and it was great. Everyone loved it and asked me for the recipe. Nicest thing about it, was we had leftover syrup from this recipe, and I put it in a mason jar in the fridge and continued to make it a glass at a time after the party. So yummy!

I was really disappointed with this recipe. It was too sweet and "syrupy". I would not have used all the peach nectar or nearly that much sugar. I did however like the basil flavor.

This was really good - I only used 1/2 the sugar called for in the recipe and I used apricot nectar instead (all I had).

Yummy! A great way to transform a cheap bottle of white into something delicious. I used a 1.5L bottle of wine, 1/3 c. sugar, 2-12oz cans of peach nectar, and a 0.5 oz pkg fresh basil.

I drink A LOT of sangria. I prefer red wine BUT I loved this recipe. I made it for a ladies brunch and it was very popular. I made 3 batches! First batch with pinot grigio (best), second batch with muscat and less sugar (good) and thrid batch with chardonay and less sugar (ok).

Suprisingly delicious combo. Had this at a friends party, loved it and have now made it twice myself. Everyone LOVES this. I used a little less sugar than the recipe calls for and a litle more wine :)

Only 3 stars, b/c to me, it needs some work. I just tasted like peach nectar... and why ADD sugar to peach nectar, I'm not sure. I am going to try again with different ratios. Maybe two bottles of wine to 3 cups nectar, 1 cup basil, juice of two lemons, and maybe, just maybe 1/2 cup sugar. Thanks for the recipe though, I would not have thought of this combination. Just needs a little tweaking for my tastes. Take care!

Absolutely scrumptious! I doubled the recipe, but kept the peach nectar to only 5 cups, otherwise too peachy.
