Ingredients
Liquids
- 1 bottle (750 ml) chilled dry white wine
- 1 cup pineapple juice
- 1/2 cup coconut rum
- 1/2 cup coconut water
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 1 cup chilled sparkling water
Fruits
- 1 cup pineapple chunks
- 1/2 cup sliced strawberries
Other
- Ice, for serving
- Pineapple wedges and toasted coconut, for garnish
Instructions
- Combine Fruits: Add the pineapple chunks and sliced strawberries into a large pitcher to start building the tropical flavors.
- Add Liquids: Pour in the chilled dry white wine, pineapple juice, coconut rum, coconut water, and fresh lime juice over the fruit in the pitcher.
- Mix Gently: Stir the mixture gently to combine all ingredients without crushing the fruit.
- Chill: Cover the pitcher and refrigerate the sangria for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and intensify.
- Add Sparkling Water: Just before serving, add chilled sparkling water to the pitcher and stir gently to maintain the carbonation.
- Serve: Fill glasses with ice, pour the sangria over the ice, and garnish each glass with a pineapple wedge and a sprinkle of toasted coconut if desired.
Notes
- Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Grigio, or another crisp dry white wine works best for this sangria.
- Add the sparkling water immediately before serving to maintain its fizz.
- For a sweeter sangria, mix in 1–2 tablespoons of simple syrup to taste.
- Freeze pineapple chunks to use as ice alternatives to keep the sangria chilled without watering it down.
