• Instructions
• Prep the Fruit:
• Start by washing and slicing your chosen fruits. For strawberries, slice them into quarters; for peaches, slice them into wedges; and for oranges, create rounds or wedges.
• Mix the Base:
• In a large pitcher, combine the sliced fruits with the sugar. Gently muddle the mixture using a wooden spoon to release the fruit juices. This will enhance the flavor profile of your sangria.
• Add the Wine and Brandy:
• Pour the rosé wine into the pitcher. If you like a stronger drink, add the brandy at this point. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients.
• Chill:
• Cover the pitcher and let the sangria chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours. This allows the flavors to meld beautifully, making it taste even better.
• Serve:
• Before serving, add ice cubes to your serving glasses. Pour the chilled sangria over the ice, then top off each glass with sparkling water or lemon-lime soda for that fizzy kick. Garnish with fresh mint leaves for a refreshing aroma.
• Enjoy!
• Sip and enjoy your refreshing Rose Sangria.
• Variations
• Fruit Variations: Feel free to use any seasonal fruits like blueberries, raspberries, or even tropical fruits like pineapple or mango.
• Non-Alcoholic Version: Replace the rosé wine with a non-alcoholic wine or sparkling grape juice for a family-friendly option.
• Dietary Needs: For a lower sugar option, omit the added sugar and use naturally sweet fruits. For gluten-free, ensure all ingredients (especially any mixers) are gluten-free.
