A vibrant and easy-to-make sangria featuring fresh strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, dry white wine, and a splash of sparkling water. Perfect for summer gatherings and patriotic celebrations.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 bottle (750 ml / 25 fl oz) dry white wine (Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio recommended)
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries
  • 1/2 cup orange liqueur (Cointreau or Triple Sec, optional)
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (about 2 lemons)
  • 1/4 cup simple syrup (adjust to taste)
  • 1 cup sparkling water or club soda
  • Ice cubes
  • Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Rinse the strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries under cold water. Hull and slice the strawberries into thin pieces (about 1/4 inch thick). Pat the berries dry gently with a paper towel.
  2. In a large pitcher, pour the entire bottle of dry white wine (750 ml / 25 fl oz). Add the orange liqueur (1/2 cup / 120 ml) and fresh lemon juice (1/4 cup / 60 ml). Stir gently to combine.
  3. Add the sliced strawberries, whole blueberries, and raspberries (1 cup each) to the pitcher. Gently stir to combine without crushing the fruit.
  4. Add the simple syrup (1/4 cup / 60 ml) and stir again. Taste and adjust sweetness if desired.
  5. Cover the pitcher and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, ideally 4 or more, to allow flavors to meld.
  6. Just before serving, add 1 cup (240 ml) of sparkling water or club soda and stir gently.
  7. Add ice cubes to the pitcher or glasses. Pour sangria into glasses and garnish with fresh mint leaves or extra berries. Serve immediately.

Notes

Chill the sangria for at least 2 hours to allow flavors to meld. Add sparkling water just before serving to maintain fizz. Be gentle when stirring to avoid crushing berries. For a non-alcoholic version, substitute white grape juice for wine and omit the orange liqueur.
