A vibrant, non-alcoholic sangria featuring fresh strawberries, blueberries, grapes, citrus, and sparkling water, perfect for summer parties and gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 1 cup green seedless grapes, halved
  • 1 orange, thinly sliced
  • 1 lemon, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup (240 ml) white grape juice or apple juice
  • 2 to 3 cups (480–720 ml) sparkling water or club soda
  • A handful of fresh mint leaves
  • Ice cubes

Instructions

  1. Rinse all berries and grapes under cold water. Hull and slice strawberries into thin pieces. Slice the orange and lemon into thin rounds, then cut rounds in half if preferred. Halve the grapes. Set aside a few whole berries and citrus slices for garnish.
  2. Place about half of the sliced strawberries and blueberries into the bottom of a large pitcher. Using a muddler or the back of a wooden spoon, gently press the berries just enough to release their juice but not so much that they become mushy.
  3. Add the rest of the strawberries, blueberries, grapes, orange, and lemon slices to the pitcher. Pour in 1 cup (240 ml) of white grape juice or apple juice. Stir gently to combine all the flavors.
  4. Cover the pitcher with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably 2-3 hours, to let the fruit flavors meld.
  5. Just before serving, add 2 to 3 cups (480-720 ml) of chilled sparkling water or club soda to the pitcher. Stir gently to mix without losing the bubbles. Add fresh mint leaves and a handful of ice cubes.
  6. Pour into glasses, including some fruit in each. Garnish with reserved berries and citrus slices for a festive presentation.

Notes

Do not over-muddle the berries to avoid a cloudy, pulpy drink. Use chilled sparkling water just before serving to keep bubbles fresh. Frozen berries should be thawed and drained before use. Adjust sweetness with honey or agave syrup if desired. Prepare up to a day ahead but add sparkling water and ice just before serving.
