Sangria Seca
Refreshingly crisp and delightfully vibrant, Sangria Seca is a modern twist on the classic sangria, offering a lighter, citrus-forward experience. This effervescent beverage combines dry white wine, a splash of orange liqueur, and fizzy sparkling water, perfectly balanced with the zesty flavors of fresh orange, lemon, lime, and crisp green apple. Fragrant mint leaves infuse a refreshing herbal note, while its subtle sweetness makes it a perfect summer sip for any occasion. Simple to prepare in just 15 minutes and best served ice-cold, this sparkling white sangria is an elegant choice for outdoor gatherings, brunches, or poolside lounging. Make a pitcher, let the fruit and mint soak in the flavors, and enjoy every bubbly, refreshing sip of this citrusy delight!
