Ingredients
- 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar Note 1
- 1 cup raspberries Note 2
- ½ cup blueberries
- 1 orange thinly sliced
- 1 grapefruit thinly sliced
- ¼ cup (60ml) triple sec Note 3
- 1 bottle (750ml) Moscato Note 4
Instructions
To make simple syrup:
- Boil 1 cup of water in a small saucepan over high heat.
- Add sugar and stir until dissolved.
- Remove from heat and let it cool completely. Simple syrup is ready.
To make the sangria:
- Put the fruits in a large pitcher. Add triple sec and half of the cooled simple syrup.
- Then fill the pitcher with Moscato.
- Stir everything and taste. If needed, add more simple syrup to taste.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight, before serving.
Notes
Note 1: Homemade simple syrup is quick and easy, but you can buy it pre-made at wine or liquor stores, if you prefer. Adjust the amount of simple syrup to your taste.
Note 2: Swap out the berries or fruit with whatever you have on hand. Strawberries, pineapple, apples, lemons, and limes are great options.
Note 3: If you don't have triple sec, substitute with any orange liquor, such as Cointreau or Grand Marnier.
Note 4: Choose any Moscato wine you like to drink. Red, white and pink Moscato works just fine. I like using pink Moscato as it makes the drink such a dreamy blush color!
