White Sangria

  • Combine everything in a large pitcher and refrigerate for 2-3 hours, or overnight before serving.

Notes

  • Use a fruity red wine such as Merlot or Grenache for best results. Avoid using dry wines such as Cabernet Sauvignon or Shiraz as they can make the sangria too tart.
  • If you want your drink to be sweeter, add more sugar to the recipe. If you prefer it to be less sweet, you can reduce the amount of sugar or omit it altogether.
  • Be sure to add plenty of fresh fruit to your sangria for both flavor and decoration. In addition to the fruit listed in the recipe above, other good choices include grapes, peaches, and pears.
