I am about to make a bold statement: Sangria is the best cocktail to serve at your 4th of July party. Forget margaritas, daiquiris, and rum & cokes, sangria is where it’s at. Allow me to convince you.
Sangrias use delicious, fresh summer fruits. Take a trip to your local farmer’s market and check out what fruit is in season. Buy some. Put it in your sangria.
Every batch of sangria is an exciting new experience. Since you can make sangria from such a wide range of fruits and wines, you are free to tweak and adapt the recipe for each pitcher. A few more blueberries this time, a bit of pomegranate that time.
Sangria saves you prep time. Since sangria needs to hangout for a while before drinking, you can and should put a pitcher together well before the party starts. Instead of having to run around playing bartender during the party, you can relax and pour drinks for your guests from the already mixed pitcher.
Sangria is a drink and a snack all in one. The ripe fruits flavor the wine and, when the wine is finished, you can eat the wine-infused fruit. What’s not to like? I chose to make a red, white, and blue sangria for the Fourth of July by using Menage a Trois California red, white peaches, and blueberries. You can change up the wine varietal and fruits to suit your palate and party menu.
Watch this video to see how to make your own red, white & blue sangria this summer. I release two new videos each week, so subscribe to my YouTube channe so you don’t miss any of the fun!
