With just four simple ingredients you can make these light, refreshing Frozen Peach Sangria slushies—ideal for cooling off on hot summer afternoons.
When temperatures climb, a frozen cocktail becomes irresistible. This Frozen Peach Sangria transforms ripe peach flavor and crisp white wine into a deliciously icy slush. It’s fruity without being overly sweet and comes together in minutes using common ingredients: frozen peaches, a bottle of dry white wine, apricot brandy, and triple sec. Make a batch for an afternoon by the pool, a backyard barbecue, or a relaxed weekend gathering.
The texture is smooth and scoopable—like a peach slushie with the added depth and brightness of white wine and orange liqueur. Because the base is frozen fruit, these slushies feel lighter than many creamy cocktails while still delivering a balanced flavor profile. The recipe is easily scalable and forgiving: adjust the alcohol or fruit to suit your taste, and store any leftovers for an instant second round.
How to Make Frozen Peach Sangria
To prepare this frozen peach sangria, add frozen peaches, a bottle of chilled white wine (such as chenin blanc or sauvignon blanc), apricot brandy, triple sec, and ice cubes to a blender. Blend on high until the mixture is completely smooth and reaches a slush-like consistency. Pour into glasses and serve immediately, garnished with fresh peach slices or a sprig of mint if desired.
Can You Freeze Leftover Sangria?
Yes—any leftover sangria freezes well. Pour extra frozen peach sangria into ice cube trays and freeze. When you want another drink, place the sangria cubes back into the blender and pulse until smooth. Freezing in portions makes it simple to refresh a single serving without making a whole new batch.
Flavor Tips and Variations
- For a slightly lighter drink, reduce the triple sec or apricot brandy by a tablespoon or two.
- Swap the apricot brandy for peach schnapps for a sweeter, more pronounced peach note.
- If you prefer a less boozy slushie, use half the wine and replace the rest with sparkling water or a lightly sweetened iced tea after blending.
- Fresh herbs like basil or mint add an aromatic contrast—tuck a few leaves into the blender or use as a bright garnish.
Pairing Ideas
This peach sangria pairs beautifully with grilled or BBQ dishes and fresh summer fare. Try it alongside:
- Grilled peach and balsamic chicken
- Peach BBQ pulled pork sandwiches
- BBQ chicken, peach, bacon, and cheddar quesadillas

Tools
- A high-powered blender (or a regular blender used in batches)
