- 1 to 2 cups mixed fruit harmonious pairings suggested above
- 3 cups red, rose, or white wine one 750ml bottle
- ½ to 1 cup liquor like brandy, triple sec, light rum, vodka – or a combination
- ¼ to ½ cup fruit juice like orange, lemon, pomegranate, peach, whatever floats your boat
- ⅛ to ¼ cup sweetener of choice such as sugar, simple syrup, honey, agave
- Up to 3 cups mixer like sparkling water, lemon-lime soda, ginger ale
- Optional - Additional fruit slices for garnish
In a large pitcher, mix fruit, wine, liquor, juice, and sweetener. Let this infuse together in the fridge as long as you can stand it. That’s at least one hour, six hours is better, but overnight is much better.
To serve, fill wine glass with ice; pour in sangria about halfway, then top it off with mixer and give it a little stir. Garnish with fruit slices if desired.
Kick back and Enjoy!!!
