This Easy White Sangria is a crazy good summer time drink! Filled with luscious fruit, crisp white wine and topped with some lemon lime soda to make it bubbly!
You guys, just a little warning—- this drink goes down really easy!! Maybe a little too easy!!!
I first tried a sangria at a friends house and instantly fell in love. It was a red sangria and it is still, to this day, one of my favorite drinks!! You see, I am a sucker for fruit and fruity drinks so when you put the two together it’s dangerous!
So, I wanted to recreate a sangria that was a little festive for the 4th of July. I know the 4th of July is almost a month away but hey I’ve got a busy schedule and need to plan ahead!
We’ve been non-stop on the go and as I mentioned a few posts back my 5 year old broke her arm. We went back to the Dr. on Monday for a check-up and everything went well.
They took the spacers out of her cast and closed it up all the way. She will be in the cast for 2 more weeks and then everything will be removed! I am soooo glad she won’t be wearing it any longer than that. She has started to complain about it being hot and itchy so I’m sure those 2 weeks won’t come fast enough for her!
Now, I’m really hoping we can avoid disaster for the rest of the summer.
Back to this sangria, as I was saying I wanted something to drink for the 4th. I had a couple of things in mind when I was thinking about what type of beverage I would make.
- It had to be easy! I don’t have time to slave over a drink and if it requires a lot of ingredients and mixers I’m not going to make it. #imlazy
- It had to be fun and fitting for the 4th of July. I love red, white and blue—- and Memorial Day and the 4th are the only times of the year when it is socially appropriate to sport those colors. Why is that???
This drink fits both those requirements! It is super easy to put together and it’s pretty to look at. It doesn’t require any super complicated or hard to find ingredients and it tastes great. That’s a winner in my books!
- 1 750 ml bottle white wine
- 3/4 cup triple sec
- 1 cup sliced fresh strawberries
- 1/2 cup fresh blueberries
- 1/2 cup fresh raspberries
- 1-2 12 oz cans lemon lime soda or ginger ale
- ice for serving
- In a large pitcher combine the wine, triple sec and fruit. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour (it tastes better if it sits in the fridge for a while)
- To serve: Pour the soda in the sangria and give it a little stir. Pour over ice into glasses. Spoon some of the fruit into the glass.
i love sangria! totally saying this recipe to make when the weather gets warmer – i love that you put berries in it! Xx
Thank you so much, Thalia!! Hope you enjoy!
Wish great grandma was a little closer so I could sign that pretty pink cast.
She would love that!! 🙂
This would be perfect for the 4th! Such a festive drink. Love it!
Thank you Elizabeth!!
#yournotlazy. Your one of the hardest working women I know. Pretty drink you made.
Thank you very much!! <3
Oh my gosh, that poor baby. I hope the two weeks goes really fast! I’d be drinking gallons of this sangria, that’s for sure…
It actually is going by pretty quickly, thank goodness!! Thanks, Dorothy 🙂
I’ve never worn a cast but I can imagine it wouldn’t be very comfortable in the summer! So glad it’ll be over soon! This looks so refreshing for summer!
Somehow, I managed to make it through childhood without a cast too. Luckily, time is going pretty quickly and if everything looks good on Monday she will get everything removed, YAY!!
Aww hope she feels better soon!! This sangria looks amazing!!
Thank you Ami and she is doing pretty well and it won’t be long the cast will be off!! 🙂
I don’t care for carbonated beverages. Is there something else that I can add to the White Sangria instead of the soda? Will it alter the flavor if I omit it?
So sorry I didn’t answer your question sooner!! You can certainly omit the soda but yes it will taste slightly different. There really isn’t anything to replace a carbonated beverage because I am using it to add carbonation to the sangria.
So I am planning a baby shower for next weekend! I am wanting to make this! Was wondering your thoughts on serving pre-served in mason jars on ice? Should I add everything except the soda? With the option of adding the soda them self?
Hi Alica! How fun!! I recommend making the sangria with the soda just before the baby shower starts and it will be fine. Thanks for asking and I hope you enjoy!!
