Sara’s Sangria
5 May
This week, I am going to give you all my super duper yummy sangria recipe.
I figure it can count as a Wednesday Wine because it contains wine and there was more than one request for the recipe, so I think I can get away with it.
Sara’s Sangria
1 bottle cheap wine, a bottle you didn’t like or one unfinished (if that happens in your house)
2 shots apricot brandy
2 shots triple sec
1 2-liter bottle ginger ale
2 oranges
2 limes
2 lemons
Fill a pitcher half full of ice. Slice lemon, lime and orange in half, set half aside. With a fork, squeeze all the juices from the center of the fruit in with the ice. Add half a bottle of wine. Take second halves of fruit, cut into slices, and drop in mixture. Add 2 shots of apricot brandy and 2 shots triple sec.
Add ginger ale to taste (usually to fill the pitcher). Slice the remaining fruit for garnish. Enjoy!

Thank you for following my chronicles on knitting, sewing, photography, cooking, wine and whatever life brings. Cheers!


I’ll be right over for a glass!!!! Thanks for sharing – great recipe :)
Thank you! My husband thanks you too! Can’t wait for some warmer weather to try it out!
Looks yummy; hope I can try it this weekend!
Sounds great! I love how you can make sangria a little different each time and it still somehow works. My secret is blending a can of peaches (juice and all) in and throwing in some pineapple as well. Do you ever make white sangria? It’s great with a bit of passionfruit!
That looks so yummy! Will have to try!!!!
Hello DRL ;) It is fantastic…Sangria is one of my favs. You cant’ really mess it up. I have not done a white one yet…but with passionfruit, you have me thinking…
