Bursting with fresh fruit, white sangria is a crisp and refreshing wine-based cocktail that's the perfect companion on a hot summer day or any time of the year! It's usually prepared ahead of time in a large batch so that the fruit can soak and provide flavor to the cocktail. The longer the sangria sits in the refrigerator before serving, the more flavorful it becomes.
White wine sangria can be made with practically any kind of fruit, even berries, so the possibilities are endless. Here, we share three of our favorite choices for a white wine sangria recipe: pineapple kiwi, pomegranate citrus, and tropical. Kick back and relax with one today!
