Ingredients

  • 1 orange sliced
  • 1 lime sliced
  • 1 cup chopped watermelon
  • 1 cup chopped honeydew
  • 1 cup chopped pineapple
  • 1/2 cup orange juice
  • 1 bottle red wine recommend Garnacha or Tempranillo
  • 1/2 cup Exotico tequila reposado
  • 1/2 cup orange liqueur
  • Sparkling water or light soda to serve (optional)

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Add chopped watermelon, honeydew, pineapple, and orange juice to a large pitcher. Stir to combine.
  2. Add red wine, tequila, and orange liqueur and stir all the ingredients together.
  3. Refrigerate sangria for 1 to 4 hours, or overnight, before serving.
  4. Serve sangria over a glass of ice. Top with light soda or sparkling water, if desired.

Notes

  • Try a sweetener. If the sangria is too strong for you, lighten sangria by adding a splash of sparkling water or light soda.
  • Make ahead. Make sangria a day ahead, so flavors can meld.
  • Select an affordable red wine. Choose a bottle you wouldn’t mind enjoying on its own. Wine is the base ingredient, after all, so let it shine.
  • How to store. Leftover sangria can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days.
