If you’ve been following me for a while, you may know that I love making cocktails.

This White Wine Berry Sangria was a hit at our Memorial Day barbecue.

I’m in love with the berry overload lately.

You can find excellent quality berries an any store this time of the year.

Ingredients to make Summer White Wine Berry Sangria:

I got some:

  • strawberries
  • blueberries
  • blackberries
  • raspberries
  • a couple bottles of Pinot Grigio wine

Sangria is one of the easiest cocktails to make, with minimal ingredients and it also is the perfect alcoholic drink for a crowd.

It is so versatile and I can never go wrong with it.

What to serve berry sangria with:

It goes well with seafood, Mexican food, Spanish food and even grilled meat.

Great to serve when you have people come over or enjoy by yourself on a hot summer day.

What is sangria?

Sangria is a wine-based “punch” that includes seasonal fruit, a sweetener (not always), brandy, and sometimes a splash of soda water.

What kind of wine to use in a white wine sangria?

Suvignon blanc or pinot Grigio are my favorite kinds of wine, when I make white sangria.

The wine you choose should be slightly fruity, dry, not too sweet (you can always sweeten the cocktail later)

How to make this summer berry sangria recipe?

Making sangria is pretty easy! All you need is :

  • A bottle of wine. I don’t suggest that you use super high end wine for this. Mid priced wines are good to make sangria cocktail.
  • Fresh fruit. In this White Wine Berry Sangria Recipe I used fresh blueberries, strawberries, blackberries and raspberries. You can also add slices of citrus – lemon, lime or even orange.
  • Sweetener – to me the sweetener is optional. I can usually enjoy my fruity cocktail without the extra sweetness. In this White Wine Berry Sangria Recipe I’ve included the option of a sweetener, feel free to use it. You can use simple syrup, honey, agave nectar or even low carb sweetener like stevia or erythritol.
  • Sparkling water (soda water). I personally like adding it because it makes the drink extra light and bubbly.
  • Fruit juice – optional (like orange juice). I did not use any in this recipe
  • Brandy or liqueur, I like to use orange flavored one like Grand Marnier, Cointreau, or even Triple Sec.
  • You combine all ingredients in a nice large pitcher (like this one) and either serve right away over ice, or refrigerate for up to two days. This Sangria Set is also very nice!

Once you make sangria, how long can you keep it in the fridge or at room temperature?

I wouldn’t keep a pitcher of sangria at room temperature for more than 2 hours.

I suggest that you keep the sangria chilled, once you make it.

It can be good for up to two days in the fridge.

Actually sangria tastes even better when made 12-24 hours in advance.

Since there is fruit inside, the fruit will absorb some of the wine and start tasting even better, but afterwards (after 2 days) it may start going bad.

  1. Oh this is such a great idea, Mira! I haven’t had sangria in the longest time and I’ve never made it myself before. This sounds delicious and so refreshing for summer! I love how pretty it is, too!

  2. Doesn’t the sparkling water go flat after sitting for the 12-24 hours? Should it go in at the last minute?
