Sparkling Tropical Sangria

Sparkling tropical sangria is the perfect summer cocktail. Kiwi fruit, oranges, and bubbly Prosecco make for a light, refreshing tropical sangria recipe that’s as easy to make as it is to drink!

How about a fun, summery, twist on an original favorite?  This sparkling tropical sangria is refreshing, light and delicious, using freshly juiced fruit and bubbly Prosecco.  If you’ve never thought about juicing for cocktails, then you must give it a try!  It adds incredible flavor depth to your cocktail without having to marinate the fruit for a long time, which is great when incorporating a sparking wine.  The result is a quick and delicious summertime favorite.

I love using this Breville juicer to make the sparkling tropical sangria. It cleans up easily and does a great job extracting the juice.

If you are not familiar with Prosecco, it’s a sparkling white wine from Italy.   Prosecco is more fruity than champagne, making it a great pick for this recipe.  You can also use your favorite white wine.  I would recommend a Chenin Blanc, Riesling, or Pinot Grigio for this recipe.  You can also spice it up with fresh herbs like sprigs of tarragon, basil or mint.

To do: Make a pitcher of this easy, sparkling tropical sangria, sit in the sunshine, and sip.
