A colorful and festive sangria punch bowl perfect for summer parties, featuring layered red, white, and blue fruits with dry wines and sparkling water for a refreshing, crowd-pleasing drink.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 bottle (750 ml) dry red wine (Spanish Tempranillo preferred)
  • 1 cup strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 1 cup raspberries
  • 1/2 cup pomegranate seeds
  • 1 bottle (750 ml) dry white wine (Sauvignon Blanc preferred)
  • 1 cup white grapes, halved (seedless)
  • 1 cup diced pineapple
  • 1/2 cup diced green apple
  • 1 can (12 oz / 355 ml) blueberry-flavored sparkling water or club soda
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1/4 cup blue curaçao liqueur (optional)
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons simple syrup or agave nectar
  • Ice cubes

Instructions

  1. Wash and slice strawberries, rinse raspberries and pomegranate seeds. Combine with red wine in a large mixing bowl. Stir gently to combine. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour to let flavors meld.
  2. Halve grapes, dice pineapple and green apple. Mix with white wine and lemon juice in another bowl. Add simple syrup if desired. Chill this mixture as well.
  3. Rinse blueberries and pat dry. Add a layer of blueberries along the bottom of the punch bowl or beverage dispenser.
  4. Carefully pour the red wine and fruit mixture over the blueberries, then gently add the white wine and fruit layer on top, pouring slowly to maintain layers.
  5. Just before serving, slowly pour in the blueberry sparkling water and blue curaçao if using. Add ice cubes on top to keep the punch chilled without diluting it too quickly.
  6. Gently stir the punch right before serving to distribute some bubbles and fruit while keeping the layered look mostly intact. Serve with a ladle and glasses.

Notes

Chill all wine and fruit mixtures separately before assembling for better layering and flavor. Use the back of a spoon to slow the pour when layering to keep colors distinct. Add sparkling water and ice last minute to maintain fizz. Fresh, firm fruit prevents mushy texture. Adjust sweetness gradually to avoid over-sweetening. For non-alcoholic version, substitute wines with sparkling grape juice or fruit juices.
