Morgan's Pineapple Sangria

In a word: delicious. In two words: summery and refreshing. It only takes about 10-15 minutes to make up a pitcher of this lovely sangria, and you'll get rave reviews whether you share with friends at a barbecue or keep it all to yourself! My friend Morgan was kind enough to share her recipe, and I'm excited to share it with you.


INGREDIENTS
  • 2 cups pineapple juice
  • 1 bottle white wine
  • 1 lemon
  • 1 lime
  • 1 orange
  • 2-4 TBSP sugar
  • Ginger Ale or Sprite (optional, and not pictured above)
TO MAKE
  1. Combine the wine, sugar, and one cup of the juice in a pitcher.
  2. Juice your citrus fruits, and cut up what remains to look pretty. Be sure to remove and toss any obvious seeds.
  3. Pour in lemon/lime/orange juice into the pitcher and stir to combine. 
  4. Add leftover citrus rinds.
  5. Store this mixture in your refrigerator anywhere from a few hours to overnight (if possible). 
  6. Add remaining one cup of pineapple juice right before serving.
  7. If you like bubbles in your sangria, fill your glass about three quarters of the way up. Then pour in the Ginger Ale/Sprite to fill the rest of the glass. Voila! Bubbly sangria.
