Tasting Notes

This Berry Rosé Sangria offers a bright and crisp taste with layers of fruit flavors. The mix of fresh berries gives a natural sweetness that balances the dry rosé wine.

The first sip brings forward notes of ripe strawberries and raspberries, followed by subtle hints of citrus from the orange slices. The sparkling water adds a pleasant fizzy texture.

Primary Flavor Notes:

Fresh summer berries
Citrus zest
Light floral notes
Gentle bubbles

The drink has a medium body and feels refreshing on the palate. Its pink color matches its berry-forward taste profile.

The finish is clean with a gentle sweetness that doesn’t overpower. The wine’s natural acidity pairs nicely with the fruit, making each sip well-balanced.

The alcohol content stays moderate, letting the fruit flavors shine through. This makes it perfect for warm weather sipping and social gatherings.

You’ll notice the flavors change slightly as the fruits continue to infuse. The taste becomes more pronounced after 2-3 hours of chilling.

Substitute

You can swap the berries in this recipe with any fresh or frozen fruits. Peaches, mangoes, and pineapples work great as alternatives to berries.

If you don’t have rosé wine, white wine makes a good replacement. You can use Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc as top choices.

For a non-alcoholic version, use sparkling grape juice or a blend of white grape juice and club soda. Add an extra splash of lime juice to balance the sweetness.

Common sugar substitutes for simple syrup include:

Honey
Agave nectar
Maple syrup
Stevia (use 1/4 the amount)

You can replace club soda with:

Ginger ale for extra sweetness
Sparkling water for a lighter taste
Lemon-lime soda for more citrus flavor

You can also swap fresh lime juice with lemon juice. Each offers a different citrus note to the drink.
