Great for brunch, garden gatherings, or just because!
Let’s make a pitcher of something pretty.
Ingredients
- Big glass pitcher
- Stirring with a wooden spoon
- Serving wine glasses
- One bottle of chilled rosé wine
- 1 cup of fresh raspberries
- 1 orange, cut into thin slices
- 1 lemon, cut into thin slices
- ½ cup of raspberry liqueur, such as Chambord
- ½ cup of sparkling water (for some fizz!)
- 1 tablespoon of honey (optional, for more sweetness)
- Rose petals that can be eaten (for decoration, optional)
Preparation Steps
- Put some fresh fruit in the pitcher.
Put some fresh raspberries, orange slices, and lemon slices into a big glass pitcher. - Add the wine
Slowly pour the cold rosé wine over the fruit. - Put in the honey and raspberry liqueur
Add the raspberry liqueur and, if you choose, drizzle in the honey. Stir it gently. - Let It Cool
Put a lid on it and put it in the fridge for at least an hour so the flavors can mix. - Add sparkling water and mix it in.
Add sparkling water and mix it gently before serving. - Serve and add decorations
Pour into glasses, add edible rose petals on top, and enjoy!
Tips & Variations
- Leave it alone! The flavors mix better the longer the sangria sits.
- Want it to be sweeter? Add a little more honey or a splash of orange juice.
- Add more flowers! For a soft, romantic touch, add a few drops of rose water.
- Chill it before serving. Put the pitcher in the fridge before serving so that the sangria is very cold.
- Be extra fancy! Put sugar and crushed freeze-dried raspberries around the edges of the glasses.
- No booze? Instead of wine, drink sparkling rosé or pink lemonade.
- More bubbles? Change out the sparkling water for prosecco or champagne.
- Berry mix? You can make it taste even better by adding blackberries or strawberries.
Enjoy it best within 24 hours!
Put it in the fridge and add sparkling water right before you serve it.
