Summer Sangria or White Sangria is a refreshing and fruity cocktail that is perfect for hot summer days. It consists of a combination of white wine, fresh summer fruit, and spirits. The wine is a light and fruity variety like white or rosé. Although we like to use berries, citrus fruit can also be used, as well as mint or basil for extra flavor. It’s a great drink to enjoy with friends and family at barbecues, picnics, or any summer gathering. Cheers!
