How to Make Pfirsichbowle German Sparkling Peach Wine Punch

  1. Blanch fresh peaches: Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add 1-1.5 lbs sliced ripe peaches and blanch for 15-20 seconds. Immediately transfer to an ice bath to stop the cooking process.
  2. Peel and sugar the peaches: Gently peel the blanched peaches. Layer the peeled peach slices in your punch bowl, sprinkling 2-3 tablespoons of granulated sugar between each layer (adjust to your sweetness preference).
  3. Refrigerate: Cover the punch bowl and refrigerate for at least 24 hours to allow the peaches to macerate and the sugars to dissolve.
  4. Prepare the ice bath: Fill a large decorative bowl with ice.
  5. Chill and combine: Nestle the punch bowl into the ice bath. Gently pour in 1 bottle (750ml) of chilled dry white wine (Riesling or similar recommended) and 1 bottle (750ml) chilled sparkling wine or Champagne.
  6. Serve: Stir gently with a ladle and serve immediately. Garnish with extra peach slices or berries, if desired.
