Sparkling Calamansi Sangria! 🍹
MJ
The origins of sangria are thought to date back thousands of years, when wine was often mixed with other ingredients, such as sugar and spices.
Today, it’s mainly associated with Spain and Portugal. But it has also become a popular summer cocktail in other parts of the world—including the Philippines. 😊
One of the best things about sangria is that, with so many versions to choose from, the ingredient combinations are endless!
Our version brings together the sweet and tangy flavors of pineapple and our very own calamansi for a distinctly Filipino touch. 👌🏻
Now, let’s get straight into it!
Ingredients
✨ 1 cup calamansi juice
- ✨ 1 cup pineapple juice
- ✨ 1 cup white wine (swap with white grape juice for a non-alcoholic version)
- ✨ Soda water
- ✨Ice cubes
- ✨ Sliced calamansi and pineapple for garnish
Directions
In a pitcher, mix the calamansi and pineapple juices with white wine (or white grape juice to make it a mocktail).
Top it off with a generous splash of cold soda water for that fizzy kick.
Stir slowly to blend then pour into glasses over ice.
Garnish with slices of calamansi and pineapple and serve!
