Super Citrus Sangria

This Citrus Sangria is packed with fresh ruby red grapefruit, blood oranges, lemons, and key limes for a bright and zesty cocktail perfect for a party!

This weekend we headed over to some friends to watch the game. And being the awesome guest that I am, I, of course, brought goodies! Now, I’m not a big beer fan and really not a huge wine fan either, but I do love me a good sangria and this Citrus Sangria definitely hits the spot!

I decided to make a sangria, it’s one of those easy drinks you can make a large batch of WAY ahead of time which is even better! Normally, I tend to gravitate towards sangrias with a red wine base, but my friend, Nicki, isn’t a huge fan of red wine. So white wine it was! I’ve always used a Moscato for my white sangrias, but something about the Chardonnay was calling my name. Maybe it was the apple and papaya aroma, but either way, I had a feeling it was going to make for a WINNING sangria!

Citrus Sangria

And it did! Seriously, the bright citrus flavors come together so beautifully with the Chardonnay and the triple sec, simple syrup, and lemon-lime soda gives it a finish that will have everyone pour a second and third glass before the game is over! Now that yesterday’s games are over, we’ve all got two weeks to start shaping up those menus for Super Sunday and I highly recommend this Citrus Sangria makes the list!
