Rosé Summer Sangria With Berries

Summer is all about relaxing with a good book in one hand and a cold drink in the other. Or Maybe even a drink in both hands if it’s been one of those days. The more fruity and cute the drink is, the more I feel in that summer mode. Don’t ask why, that’s just how it is for me, and I go with it.

The freshness of summer berries makes for the perfect refreshing cocktail. My love for berries and rosé wine is what lead me to make this amazing Rosé Summer Sangria With Berries.

An Easy Rosé Sangria

I love making fun cocktails with wine, but I always hate fighting with wine bottle opener to get the cork out, and breaking at least one nail trying to remove the foil first.

All of my fights ended when we got the Rabbit Wine Opener for Christmas this year! If you haven’t heard of this you have to look it up. It makes removing the cork a breeze. You’ll never experience the broken cork fail ever again.

What’s almost better than the opener itself is the foil cutter it comes with. They give you a perfect little cutter that goes around the top of the bottle to make a perfect cut on the foil, removing only what’s necessary to get to the cork.

This opener is seriously life-changing for any regular wine drinker and totally worth the money.

What is Sangria?

A traditional sangria is actually a Spanish drink made with red wine, fruit, orange juice, and brandy. The mix of juices and wine gives it a deep red color and is part of how it got the name sangria. It comes from the Spanish word “sangre” which means blood.

Since its origin, the drink has been adapted and customized over and over to make a whole variety of sangria drinks. You can now find both red and white sangrias, made with all different kinds of juices and wines.

The main components you need to make a sangria of some sort are wine, fresh fruit, juice, and either rum or brandy.

How to Choose the Perfect Rosé

So, first things first, you’ll want to pick out the perfect bottle of rosé for this summer sangria. How do you do that? Here’s how:

  • Rosé runs from sweet to dry, depending on where it’s from and what the base is.
  • Rosé made from pinot noir (what’s used in this recipe) is a dry rosé, and ones with a Riesling or Moscato base are sweeter
  • Choosing rosé from Oregon is usually a good choice for a decent bottle at a cheaper price.
  • Most rosé made in California is on the sweeter side.

Now, the alcohol may be what draws you to this recipe, but once you try it, it’s the fresh berries (and probably the alcohol) that will keep you coming back for more.

Once all the liquids are mixed together, you drop in some of your favorite fresh summer berries. We used strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries, and it was perfect!

All the berries make this sangria look just as good as it tastes! The blueberries tend to settle at the bottom, so you might want to give the drink a good gentle stir before pouring.

These drinks, while beautiful and innocent in appearance, can be misleading. I will warn you that this is a pretty strong drink. Of course, you can adjust the amount of alcohol for your preference, but if you follow the recipe remember to drink responsibly.
