Blood Orange Sangria

I’m not going to lie, I am not much of an alcohol drinker. But what I do love is Sangria. Especially a white sangria on a hot summer’s day. Well, unfortunately the summer day is not here yet, but a zoom date with friends is! This drink is so versatile because you can use any fruit flavor you prefer, any wine you prefer and any soda you prefer- it is the best drink to personalize.

I prepared this drink to enjoy while we chatted with our friends on Saturday night. The only thing you must do is plan this drink in advance, because the longer the fruit sits in the wine, the better it tastes!

Go grab your favourite fruit- or some blood oranges because this sangria is worth gossiping about!
