Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Limoncello
- 1 bottle (750ml) White wine (dry, like Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio)
- 1 cup Sparkling water (unflavored)
- 2 large Lemon
- 2 large Lime
- 1 large Orange
- 10 leaves Fresh mint leaves
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar (optional)
- 3 cups Ice cubes
Instructions
Wash and dry all the citrus fruits thoroughly.
Slice the lemons, limes, and orange into thin rounds. Remove any visible seeds and set the slices aside.
In a large pitcher or punch bowl, combine the limoncello, white wine, and sparkling water.
Gently stir in the citrus slices and fresh mint leaves. Taste the mixture and, if desired, add granulated sugar for extra sweetness, stirring until dissolved.
Refrigerate the sangria for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld together.
Just before serving, add the ice cubes directly to the sangria or into individual glasses to keep the drink chilled.
Serve the sangria in wine glasses or tumblers, making sure to include some citrus slices and mint leaves in each glass for garnish.
