During warm summer days, nothing refreshes quite like a chilled glass of Summer Berry Sangria. It’s a mix of Moscato wine, silver tequila, and strawberry nectar, brimming with fresh berries. The frozen raspberries act like ice cubes, releasing more flavor as they melt. Adding a splash of lemon-lime soda gives a light fizz that’s just right for relaxing on a patio. It’s an easy favorite because it’s both refreshing and simple to make. You’ll love serving this at your next gathering.

Equipment
- Large Pitcher
- Stirring spoon
- Measuring cups
- Glasses
Ingredients
- 1.5 liters Moscato wine
- ½ cup silver tequila
- 11.3 ounces strawberry nectar
- ½ cup fresh blueberries
- ½ cup fresh strawberries sliced
- ½ cup fresh raspberries
- Additional raspberries for freezing optional
- Lemon-lime soda optional for topping
Instructions
- Prepare the Fruit:
- Wash all the berries thoroughly. Slice the strawberries if they aren’t already prepped.
- Optional: Freeze some additional raspberries ahead of time to use as ice cubes in the sangria. This not only chills the sangria but also adds a burst of berry flavor as they melt.
- Mix the Sangria:
- In a large pitcher, combine the Moscato wine and silver tequila.
- Stir in the strawberry nectar to mix well with the wine and tequila.
- Add the fresh blueberries, sliced strawberries, and fresh raspberries to the pitcher.
- Chill:
- Let the sangria chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. This allows the flavors to meld together and the fruit to infuse the sangria with its flavors.
- Serve:
- Serve the sangria over ice. If using, add a few frozen raspberries to each glass for an extra touch.
- Optional: For a fizzy sangria, top each glass with a splash of lemon-lime soda right before serving. This adds a refreshing effervescence.
- Garnish and Enjoy:
- Garnish with a sprig of mint or a slice of lime if desired.
- Enjoy the light, fruity flavors of your Summer Berry Sangria.
