Pineapple Sangria
Description
This Pineapple Sangria features pineapple chunks, strawberries, and lime slices combined with dry white wine, pineapple juice, and brandy for depth and brightness. The addition of club soda adds gentle carbonation, making it light and thirst-quenching. Chopped fresh mint leaves infuse herbal freshness into the drink. After mixing, refrigerating the sangria allows the fruit flavors to infuse the liquid fully, mellowing and harmonizing the profile. The recipe recommends adjusting sweetness by varying soda or wine to taste. Serving chilled, this sangria suits warm weather occasions or casual entertaining.
Ingredients
- 1 pineapple chopped and sliced (I like a mixture of both
- 1 pint strawberry chopped or left whole
- 2 lime sliced
- 1 dry white wine standard 750mL bottle, like Chardonnay
- 1 cup pineapple juice
- 1 cup club soda
- 1/2 cup brandy
- 1/4 cup mint plus more for garnish, fresh leaves
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients together in a large pitcher, jar or bowl and stir, stir, stir. Refrigerate for an hour or so (or longer!) before serving. Taste and if it’s too sweet for you, add a bit more soda or dry wine. If you let this sit overnight, it will turn a pretty shade of pink!
