Base & Alcohol

Method

Fruit Prep

1

Cut fruit

Peel and cut the pineapple into 1/2-inch chunks and the mango into 1/2-inch cubes. Thinly slice the orange and lime. Place all prepared fruit into a large pitcher.

2

Lightly muddle about half of the pineapple and mango pieces in the pitcher with a wooden spoon or muddler to release juices and flavor without turning the fruit to pulp.

Mixing the Sangria

3

Add the dry white wine, white rum, and orange liqueur to the pitcher with the fruit.

4

Pour in the fresh orange juice and fresh lime juice.

5

Stir in the agave nectar (or simple syrup) and the grated fresh ginger, if using. Taste and add up to 1 additional tablespoon of sweetener if you prefer sweeter sangria.

6

Cover the pitcher and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably 4–6 hours, to let the fruit macerate and flavors meld. For best flavor, refrigerate up to 12 hours.

Finish & Serve

7

When ready to serve, gently stir the sangria. Add the chilled club soda or sparkling water to the pitcher to provide effervescence. If you prefer a less fizzy drink, add half the amount and let guests top their glasses.

8

Fill glasses with ice (about 1/4 to 1/2 cup per glass). Place a few pieces of the macerated fruit into each glass.

9

Ladle the sangria over the ice and fruit, then garnish each glass with a sprig of fresh mint and an extra slice of lime or orange if desired.

10

Serve immediately. Leftover sangria (without added ice) can be refrigerated for up to 48 hours; add club soda just before serving to retain fizz.
