#Raspberry Rose Sangria

Course Dessert, Drinks
Cuisine American

Equipment

  • Equipment Needed:
  • Large pitcher
  • Wooden spoon for stirring
  • Cutting board and knife
  • Measuring cups
  • Citrus squeezer (optional)

Ingredients
  

  • Ingredients:
  • 1 bottle of Rosé wine 750ml
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries
  • 1 cup strawberries sliced
  • 1 orange thinly sliced
  • 1 lemon thinly sliced
  • 1 cup orange juice freshly squeezed or store-bought
  • 1/2 cup raspberry liqueur like Chambord
  • 1 –2 tablespoons of honey or agave syrup optional, depending on sweetness
  • Club soda or sparkling water to top off (about 1/2 cup)
  • Ice cubes for serving

Instructions
 

  • Step-by-Step Method:
  • Prepare the Fruit
  • Start by rinsing all the fresh fruits: raspberries, strawberries, orange, and lemon.
  • Slice the strawberries into halves, and thinly slice the orange and lemon.
  • Mix the Base
  • In a large pitcher, combine the sliced fruit (orange, lemon, strawberries, and raspberries).
  • Pour in the Rosé wine, orange juice, and raspberry liqueur. From my experience, using a fruity Rosé gives a sweeter and more refreshing flavor, but you can opt for a drier one if you prefer.
  • Sweeten (If Desired)
  • If you like your sangria sweeter, add in the honey or agave syrup at this stage. Stir well until it's fully dissolved. Based on my overall experience, I sometimes skip the sweeteners altogether if the fruits are already naturally sweet.
  • Chill
  • Cover the pitcher and let the sangria sit in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, but ideally 4 hours. This allows the fruit to infuse into the wine, creating a more vibrant flavor.
  • Serve
  • Just before serving, give the sangria a good stir. Pour over ice cubes in glasses, and top off with a splash of club soda or sparkling water for a fizzy finish.
  • Garnish & Enjoy
  • Add extra slices of fruit or a few fresh raspberries on top of each glass for that final touch. Now it’s ready to enjoy!
  • Variations:
  • White Wine Version:
  • If you’re not into Rosé, you can easily substitute with a crisp white wine like Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc. This will create a lighter, more citrus-forward sangria.
  • Low-Sugar Option:
  • Skip the honey/agave syrup and go for a sugar-free orange juice. You can also swap the raspberry liqueur for a sugar-free version, or use a bit of raspberry-flavored sparkling water for a similar fruity taste without the sugar.
  • Dietary Substitutions:
  • Vegan-Friendly: Many wines aren’t vegan due to fining agents. Look for a vegan-certified Rosé (there are plenty out there!).
  • Gluten-Free: Sangria is naturally gluten-free, but double-check that your wine and liqueur don’t contain any gluten additives.
  • Berry Blast:
  • You can add more types of berries such as blackberries, blueberries, or even pomegranate seeds for a more colorful, antioxidant-packed version
