Watermelon Moscato Sangria (Olive Garden)
Description
Watermelon Moscato Sangria (Olive Garden) blends 750 ml of sweet Moscato wine with ginger ale and watermelon syrup to create a flavored base. Fresh strawberries and orange slices add natural fruit accents that infuse flavor and color. The mixture is served chilled over ice to maintain a refreshing character. The ginger ale provides sweetness and sparkle, while the watermelon syrup lends a distinct fruity profile reminiscent of summer beverages.
To balance flavors, fresh lemon or lime juice may be added if the sangria tastes too sweet. To preserve the carbonation, ginger ale is best added just before serving rather than mixing in advance. If the watermelon flavor feels weak, increase the syrup quantity by a small amount. The sangria serves well as a light, sweet cocktail suited for warm weather or casual entertaining.
