rosé sangria recipe - featured image

A light, bubbly, and sweet pink rosé sangria perfect for summer parties, made with fresh fruit, elderflower liqueur, and sparkling water.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 bottle (750 ml) dry rosé wine (e.g., Whispering Angel or Miraval)
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 1 large peach, sliced thin (or nectarines)
  • 1 medium lemon, thinly sliced
  • 1 medium orange, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons elderflower liqueur (optional, e.g., St-Germain)
  • 1 cup (240 ml) club soda or sparkling water
  • 12 tablespoons honey or simple syrup, to taste
  • A small handful fresh mint leaves, for garnish
  • Ice cubes, as needed

Instructions

  1. Rinse all fresh fruit thoroughly. Hull and slice the strawberries into halves or quarters depending on size. Slice the peach thinly, removing the pit. Cut the lemon and orange into thin rounds, removing seeds if possible.
  2. In a large pitcher, add the sliced strawberries, peach, lemon, and orange. Pour in the entire bottle of rosé wine (750 ml). Stir gently to mix the fruit evenly.
  3. Measure 1 to 2 tablespoons of honey or simple syrup and stir into the pitcher until dissolved. Add 2 tablespoons of elderflower liqueur if using. Adjust sweetness to taste.
  4. Cover the pitcher and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, ideally 4-6 hours, to allow flavors to meld and fruit to infuse the wine.
  5. Just before serving, add 1 cup (240 ml) of club soda or sparkling water for fizz. Stir gently to combine without flattening the bubbles. Add ice cubes to chill further.
  6. Tear fresh mint leaves and scatter on top. Serve immediately in clear glasses with some soaked fruit in each glass.

Notes

Do not over-stir after adding soda to preserve bubbles. Slice fruit thinly to release flavor but avoid mushing. Use a dry rosé with good acidity for best balance. Add soda and ice just before serving to keep fizz lively. Can substitute rosé with sparkling pink grape juice for non-alcoholic version.
