What type of fruit is best in White Margarita Sangria?
As in many sangria recipes, this White Margarita Sangria recipe is both flexible and versatile. Substitute the fruit in this Sangrita recipe for whatever you happen to have on hand. No matter what fruit you choose, you’ll want about two cups of it for the pitcher.
What type of wine do you use in a White Margarita Sangria?
For this sangria, you can use just about any white wine. I recommend using a type of wine that you typically enjoy drinking. For this recipe I tend to use a Sauvignon blanc or pinot grigio.
The most important rule about wine for a sangria, is not to use an expensive wine. Save your expensive wine for nice dinners! Use a less expensive wine in sangria- the addition of other ingredients and fruit means you won’t need the best wine to make a delicious sangria!
How long can White Margarita Sangria last in the refrigerator?
This sangria will safely keep in the refrigerator for 5 days, so whip up a pitcher and sip on it all weekend long!
How to make a White Margarita Sangria
Choose a pitcher and gather your ingredients.
You’ll need a bottle of white wine, a can of frozen limeade, tequila, triple sec, sugar, and fruit.
Slice the fruit and place it in the bottom of your pitcher. Pour the sugar onto the fruit, then lightly muddle the fruit and sugar together.
Next you’ll add half a can of lime juice concentrate, tequila, and triple sec. Stir the sangria until well mixed.
Pour a bottle of white wine (such as a sauvignon blanc or pinot grigio) into the pitcher, stir and refrigerate at least 4 hours, or overnight.
To serve the White Margarita Sangria, fill a large wine glass with ice. Fill the glass just over halfway full with chilled sangrita. Finally, top the sangria off with your favorite carbonated mixer. You can use sparkling water, ginger ale, club soda, or a lemon-lime soda for this sangria.
(Or, you can serve the sangria as is, without topping it off with carbonated mixer, if you prefer)
