Peach Iced Tea Wine Spritzer

Jump to Recipe

Have a drink with this Peach Iced Tea Wine Spritzer recipe! This perfect summertime beverage combines the natural sweetness of fresh peaches with the crisp and bubbly flavors of peach-infused wine and iced tea seltzer.

To begin, gather one pound of fresh peaches and remove the pits. These juicy and fragrant peaches will be the star of the spritzer, providing a luscious and natural sweetness. Don't forget to wash the peaches thoroughly to ensure their freshness. Next, grab six basil leaves to add a touch of herbal freshness and aromatic complexity to the drink.

In a blender, combine the peaches and basil leaves, blending them until smooth. The blender will break down the peaches, creating a velvety texture and releasing their sweet and juicy flavors. Once blended, strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a pitcher. This step ensures a smooth and seamless texture in the spritzer, removing any excess pulp or seeds.

Now it's time to add the delightful fizz and fruity essence to our spritzer. Pour the sweet peach bubbly into the same pitcher, combining it with the strained peach and basil mixture. This bubbly sweet peach wine, with its hints of fruitiness and effervescence, adds a celebratory touch to our spritzer.

To create a light and refreshing twist, incorporate two cups of peach iced tea seltzer into the pitcher. This seltzer brings a subtle tea flavor and a crisp effervescence, making the spritzer even more invigorating.

Give the pitcher a gentle stir, ensuring that all the ingredients are fully incorporated. The flavors of the fresh peaches, basil, sweet peach bubbly and peach iced tea seltzer will come together harmoniously, creating a balanced and delightful drink.

 

Directions:

1. In a blender, blend peaches and basil until smooth. Strain through a fine mesh strainer into a pitcher.
