White Wine Sangria

Last month I hosted a few of my girlfriends for a backyard BBQ which gave me an excellent excuse to create another refreshing summer cocktail recipe for all of you.

Since I already shared my favorite traditional sangria recipe (made with just 5 ingredients!) this time I decided to create a white wine version infused with ginger and citrus fruit.

White Wine Citrus Sangria - a summery drink recipe

For a subtle kick and added sweetness, I made a homemade ginger syrup steeped with lots of spicy ginger root. And since you can never have too much ginger in a cocktail, I top each glass with cold, sparkling ginger beer before serving.

As an added bonus, this white wine sangria doesn’t stain. Perfect for breaking out your summer whites.

  2. Are you sure that 2- 50 ml bottles of wine is right? That would only be 3 ounces of wine … less than half a cup. I really want to make this but I want to make sure it’s right. Thanks!

  4. I love white sangria but can’t fathom why the ginger and sugar and ginger beer – that wold ruin it for me. There is enough sugar in the orange juice and wine itself. You have turned it into a pop.

    • Hi Carol – Have you tried the recipe? It’s not overly sweet at all as I hate sweet drinks. Fresh orange juice has no added sugar and offers more of a citrus flavor than sweetness. Additionally, this recipe is for two 50-ml bottles of dry white wine. Lastly, if you want it to be less sweet simply add less simple syrup and/or skip the ginger beer. It’s extremely versatile! You can also add more lemon juice. Let me know if I can help you brainstorm ways to make this drink fit your personal preference for sweetness but I ask you to please try it before claiming that I’ve ruined a recipe. Thank you!

      • I only said it would ruin it FOR ME; as it makes it more like pop than sangria. But I will try it and tweak it and see what I can come up with! Thanks!
