Equipment

Ingredients

2 bottles 750ml each dry white wine (Pinot Grigio works best)
2 cups pineapple juice
1/2 cup triple sec
1 fresh pineapple cut into chunks
2 oranges sliced
2 limes sliced
1 lemon sliced
1/2 cup fresh mint leaves
Club soda for topping
Ice cubes

Instructions

Cut the pineapple into 1-inch chunks. Then, slice the oranges, limes, and lemon into thin rounds.

Pour the white wine into the pitcher. Then, add pineapple juice and triple sec.
Add the fruit pieces and mint leaves to the pitcher.
Place the pitcher in the refrigerator for 4-6 hours to let the flavors blend.

When ready to serve, fill wine glasses with ice cubes.
Pour the sangria mixture into each glass, leaving room at the top.
Top each glass with a splash of club soda and garnish with fresh fruit pieces.

Notes

Store leftover sangria in the refrigerator for up to 48 hours. The fruit will continue to infuse the drink with flavor.

Add the club soda just before serving to keep the fizz fresh.

For a stronger drink, add an extra 1/4 cup of triple sec.

Replace the triple sec with brandy for a more traditional sangria taste.

Tasting Notes

This fruity sangria cocktail brings a perfect balance of sweet and tart flavors. Fresh pineapple juice adds natural sweetness, while dry white wine provides a crisp backbone.

The splash of citrus from fresh lime juice brightens the drink. Then, orange liqueur adds depth and complexity without being too strong.

Primary Flavors:

Sweet pineapple
Bright citrus
Light white wine
Subtle orange notes

The texture is smooth and refreshing, with tiny bubbles from club soda adding a gentle fizz. Ice keeps it perfectly chilled.

Each sip starts sweet then moves to light wine notes before ending with citrus. The finish is clean and not too sweet.

Garnish: Fresh pineapple wedge and lime wheel

The golden-yellow color looks bright and inviting. Fresh fruit garnishes make it extra appealing for summer parties and gatherings.
