Equipment

  • Large Pitcher: I usually grab a 2-quart glass pitcher for mixing and serving.
  • Cutting Board and Knife: For slicing fruit neatly and safely.
  • Measuring Cups and Spoons: To get the juices and syrups just right.
  • Mixing Spoon: A long spoon works for stirring everything together.
  • Cups or Glasses: I like clear glasses to show off that pink color.
  • Citrus Juicer (Optional): Handy if you’re using fresh lemon or lime juice.
  • Ice Scoop: Makes serving quick and keeps things tidy.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups pink grape juice
  • 1 cup sparkling water or club soda
  • 1/2 cup cranberry juice
  • 1/4 cup rose syrup non-alcoholic
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice fresh is best
  • 1 orange sliced
  • 1 lemon sliced
  • 1 cup strawberries sliced
  • 1/2 apple chopped
  • Fresh rose petals edible, for garnish
  • Ice cubes as needed

Instructions

  • Toss all the sliced fruit (orange, lemon, strawberries, apple) into the pitcher.
  • Pour in the pink grape juice, cranberry juice, and lemon juice.
  • Add the rose syrup for that fresh, floral kick.
  • Mix in the sparkling water or club soda right before serving so it stays bubbly.
  • Give everything a gentle stir with a long spoon.
  • Fill your glasses with ice cubes.
  • Pour the sangria into each glass, making sure everyone gets some fruit.
  • Top each drink with a few edible rose petals for garnish.

Notes

If I can’t find pink grape juice, white grape juice works, but the color turns out lighter.
Chilling all the fruit and juices ahead of time is key—nobody likes a lukewarm mocktail.
No edible rose petals? No problem. I just skip them or toss in thin apple slices for a quick fix.
This drink is best right after you make it, while the fruit is fresh and the bubbles are still lively.
I try not to make it more than two hours ahead so everything tastes crisp.
If you want a deeper flavor, let the fruit soak in the juices for about 30 minutes before adding the sparkling water. And honestly, it’s super easy to double or triple if you’re hosting a crowd.

Must Have Ingredients

Tasting Notes

First thing I notice with this mocktail? The gentle floral aroma. The rose scent is subtle—it doesn’t smack you in the face, but it’s definitely there, mingling with the fruit.

The flavor is fresh and balanced. I get sweet berries and a touch of citrus, while the rose syrup brings a soft, perfumed sweetness that doesn’t take over.

The sparkling water gives it a crisp finish. It’s refreshing and not at all heavy, which I love.

Texture:
The texture is smooth with a lively fizz. It’s not syrupy or thick at all—just light and easy to drink.

If you want it less sweet, add more sparkling water or cut back on the rose syrup. Want more floral flavor? Go ahead, add a tad more syrup.

Appearance

  • Light pink color
  • Clear with small bubbles
  • Garnished with fresh fruit or mint

This mocktail is easy to sip and feels a bit fancy, but it’s not fussy or complicated. Sometimes that’s exactly what you want, isn’t it?

Substitute

Sometimes I have to adjust recipes based on what’s actually in my kitchen. For this Pink Rose Sangria Mocktail, swapping ingredients is pretty straightforward.

Equipment:

  • Pitcher
  • Stirring spoon
  • Measuring cups

Ingredients:

  • If I don’t have pink grape juice: I’ll usually grab white grape juice and toss in a splash of cranberry for that color.
  • Instead of lemon-lime soda: Sometimes club soda or sparkling water just works better, especially if I’m not craving too much sweetness.
  • Missing rose syrup: No big deal—I mix up some simple syrup with a drop or two of rose water and call it good.

Instructions:

  • I pour whatever juice combo I’m using into the pitcher.
  • If the color or flavor seems off, I’ll tweak it with more syrup or juice until it feels right.
  • Stir it up, taste, and adjust the sweetness or rose hit as needed before serving.
