Strawberry Sangria – White wine or rosé flavored with fresh strawberries, raspberries, oranges, and homemade strawberry syrup. A beautiful cocktail for spring and summer.
A couple of weeks ago strawberries started arriving in our local grocery stores. They are deep red, juicy, and deliciously fragrant. I have been buying them by the boatload. So, what do you do when you have an abundance of strawberries? You make the best sangria this spring and summer will ever see. Friends, let me introduce you to my new love – Strawberry Sangria.
This sangria is filled with fresh strawberries, raspberries, oranges, homemade strawberry syrup, orange liqueur (if you choose), and the best part of all… SPARKLING ROSÉ!
This sparkling Rosé is an ideal compliment to the flavors and colors in this sangria. I purchased it at Whole Foods, if you want to try the same one. I really liked the fizziness (← technical wine term) that this sparkling variety added to the sangria.
Prefer a non-sparkling wine? Totally fine.
Prefer white wine over rosé? Do it.
I can’t imagine this sangria could be bad.

Does this make a gallon?

No, less than that. You can double or triple it if you need closer to a gallon.
