This was big hit! I made the traditional red sangria and the white sangria. Everyone loved the red but asked for seconds on the white. Very easy to make and worth making. Everyone requested a copy of the recipe.

SOOOOO good!!! Even better than normal sangria. I made it for Valentines day, and we both loved it. I did change a few things: I used 1/2 peach schnaaps and 1/2 brandy instead of peach vodka (the brabdy adds the perfect kick), fewer peaches, raspberries instead of grapes, no sugar, and 3 Tab. crystal light lemmonade powder instead of concentrate. Still a little on the sweet side, so next time, I'll only use about a Tab. of lemmon stuff, or maybe just fresh squeezed lemon, since my boyfriend doenst like fruity drinks. But we still both loved this!!! definatly recomended :)

Fantasitc drink for a summer party. I used a Pino Grigio ,sliced apples, peaches and grapes. Also, could not find peach vodka a great substitution was 1/2 cup peach schnapps and 1/4 cup brandy.

We really enjoyed this. I liked the peach / wine combination. Couldn't find peach-flavored vodka though so we substituted peach schnappes.

I used a peach flavored wine which turned out great, but I'm sure just the white wine would be good too. You'll want to (at least) double this recipe!!!!!

Very good! Not a hit like the classic spanish sangria on this site was though. But very good and was still gone in the end. Made a double batch and used the peach schnapps/brandy recommendations which was great. Also used raspberries with the peaches & grapes. Grapes went uneaten in the end, so may use other fruits in the next batch

I doubled the recipe except the sugar (used 1/4 cup). I added a few more tablespoons of the lemonade concentrate instead. I finally found Peach Vodka (Absolut brand). This makes you wish that peaches were in season all year round! Careful...it's got a kick to it! This Sangria not only tastes great but the presentation is very impressive. Make sure to make it in advance. There is a huge difference in the flavor if you don't let the fruit sit. Everyone loved this refreshing drink.

This turned out really good! I didn't have peach vodka (or brandy or schnapps) so I used Welch's white grape-peach juice instead. Mixed it with pinot grigio white wine until I could taste it (I would say I added about 1 cup or so). This also cut down on the alcohol content. I used pure lemon juice instead of concentrate (not as much-- juice from 1 lemon for each bottle), and added apples, peaches, and raspberries. The apples are really good in it! I recommend doubling the recipe (we got ~7-8 glasses out of 2 bottles of wine). I will definitely be making this again!!
