Blood Orange Cranberry Wine Sangria
Effortless holiday cheer in a glass! This simple blood orange cranberry wine sangria is perfect for all your festivities.
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 bottle 750 ml Riesling wine
- 1 bottle 750 ml Prosecco, chilled
- 1 cup 240 ml cranberry juice
- 1 cup 240 ml orange juice, freshly squeezed or bottled
- 2 blood oranges divided
- 1 cup fresh cranberries
- ½ cup 120 ml club soda
- ½ cup 120 ml simple syrup, or to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the orange. Slice one blood orange and add the slices to a large pitcher.
- Add the cranberries. Add the fresh cranberries and gently muddle the fruit to release some of the juices.
- Mix the sangria. Pour in the Riesling, cranberry juice, orange juice, club soda, and simple syrup. Stir gently to combine.
- Chill. Cover the pitcher and refrigerate for 24 hours to allow the fruit flavors to blend.
- Add the Prosecco and serve. Just before serving, pour in the chilled Prosecco and stir gently. Serve in glasses garnished with the remaining blood orange slices and cranberries.
Recipe Notes
Make ahead: Prepare the sangria base up to 24 hours before serving and refrigerate. Add the chilled Prosecco just before serving.
Blood oranges: If using freshly squeezed blood orange juice, buy 3–4 oranges instead of 2 so you have enough for the juice, sliced fruit, and garnish.
Wine: A dry or off-dry Riesling works well. If using a sweeter wine, reduce the simple syrup to taste.
Cranberry juice: Unsweetened cranberry juice will make a more tart sangria, while cranberry juice cocktail will make it sweeter.
Serving: Serve chilled. Add ice directly to individual glasses if desired, rather than diluting the pitcher.
