5-Minute Watermelon Sangria
Sweet and refreshing watermelon sangria ready in just 5 minutes! And because we liquify the watermelon so it quickly mixes with the wine, and serve the sangria over ice, you don't need to chill it if you don't have time. Serve watermelon sangria alongside some sharing plates or appetizers like a burrata platter or tomato bruschetta.
