Strawberry Simple Syrup
In a small saucepan, combine the sliced strawberries, water, and sugar.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, then reduce to a simmer.
Let the mixture simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the strawberries are soft and the syrup has taken on a bright red color.
Strain the syrup through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing on the strawberries to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids.
Allow the syrup to cool to room temperature.
Sangria
In a large pitcher, combine the cooled Strawberry Simple Syrup with a bottle of white wine.
Add the sliced strawberries and orange slices to the pitcher.
Refrigerate the sangria for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to let the flavors meld together.
Just before serving, stir in the club soda for a refreshing fizz.
Serve the sangria over ice and garnish with fresh mint leaves.
