{Bake} White Wine Summer Fruit Sangria

A refreshing alternative to sweet, syrupy red wine sangria:
{Auntie C’s White Wine Summer Fruit Sangria}
Over the July 4th weekend, Auntie C and Uncle B came for a visit bearing a bounty of fresh summer fruit, Pinot Grigio and Cointreau. We sat around the table on the deck, tasting and chopping and tasting some more.
The result: a lighter, crisper version of your typical sangria that was not too cloyingly sweet and helped us beat the heat sipping in style.
Ingredients
- 2 bottles white wine (Pinot Grigio or Rioja)
- 1/2 cup Cointreau
- Raspberries, peaches, strawberries and any other summer fruit on hand
- 2 limes
- 2-3 cups peach nectar juice (if you can’t find peach nectar, add sugar to taste)
- Club soda
Step 1
Pour the wine into your pitcher.
Step 2
Add the washed and chopped fruit to the wine.
Step 3
Squeeze in lime juice.
Step 4
Add the Cointreau and peach nectar juice (or sugar).
Step 6
Let sit and chill for at least 2 hours.
Step 7
Pour individual glasses and top off with club soda.
