There's nothing I love more than a tasty cocktail at the end of a hot summer day. One that uses the fresh peaches that are in season right now? Even better. I promise this summery peach mango sangria will not disappoint!
The ingredients are fairly simple to find in any grocery store: pinot noir, triple sec, mango nectar, sugar, lime and peach. If you can't find the mango nectar, just substitute a peach or mango juice, it's practically the same thing. I measured 8 oz. of wine, 6 oz. of mango nectar, 1 shot of triple sec and 1 tsp. sugar into a wine glass. Make sure that all of the ingredients are chilled so you have a cool and refreshing drink! Since this was a test run for the recipe, I made a single serving of the sangria. The recipe posted below is for 2 servings, though.
Since I was only making one glass, I used about 1/4 of the lime. I first sliced a ring off the lime for the garnish, and squeezed the juice of the remaining end piece into the sangria, tossing the lime in as well for extra flavor. I repeated the same process with the peach, cutting of a wedge for garnish and dicing about 1/4 of the peach to put into the sangria.
The only step left! Sit and enjoy! Summertime can't get much better than this!
