Ingredients
Liquids
- 1 bottle (750 ml) chilled dry white wine
- 1 cup pineapple juice
- 1/2 cup orange juice
- 1/4 cup coconut rum
- 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
- 1 cup sparkling water or lemon-lime soda
Fruits
- 1 cup fresh pineapple chunks
- 1 cup diced mango
- 1 orange, thinly sliced
- 1 lime, thinly sliced
Others

Instructions
- Prepare the fruit: Add the pineapple chunks, diced mango, orange slices, and lime slices to a large pitcher to create a vibrant base for your sangria.
- Add liquids: Pour in the chilled dry white wine, pineapple juice, orange juice, coconut rum, and fresh lime juice into the pitcher over the fruit.
- Combine gently: Stir everything gently to mix the flavors without bruising the fruit.
- Refrigerate: Cover the pitcher and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the fruit flavors to infuse into the sangria.
- Before serving: Just before serving, add the sparkling water or lemon-lime soda to the pitcher and stir gently to keep it bubbly.
- Serve: Fill glasses with ice and pour the sangria over the top. Garnish with fresh fruit and mint if desired.
Notes
- Use Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc, or another crisp dry white wine for best results.
- For a sweeter sangria, substitute lemon-lime soda for sparkling water or add 1–2 tablespoons of simple syrup.
- Frozen pineapple and mango can replace some of the ice for a colder, fruitier drink.
- Add sparkling water just before serving to maintain the sangria’s fizz.
