Get ready for poolside summer days with this Easy White Sangria Recipe, a delicious blend of white wine, champagne, and 4 kinds of fruit!
A delicious sangria with white wine and fruit
On a hot day, there is nothing more delicious and refreshing than an ice cold glass of sangria! Bonus points if it's enjoyed poolside. As the weather gets warmer and we finally start seeing 80° days, I decided to share a quick and easy white sangria recipe so that you're ready to go when your first poolside day arrives.
This simple recipe is made with three types of sweet alcohol: white wine, champagne, and triple sec. For fruit, we're doing a triple blend of strawberries, peaches, and pineapple, followed by some lemon slices and a dash of mint!
Ingredients in easy white wine sangria
From white wine and champagne to three types of fruit, this sangria puts emphasis on sweetness and comes through on great flavor. Here's everything you'll need:
- Wine: First, you'll need 1 bottle of sweet white wine. I used Riesling!
- Champagne: Next, include 1 bottle of champagne. Any type will taste great.
- Triple Sec: Complete the liquid line up with ½ cup of triple sec for extra flavor!
- Fruit: For the fruit, use 8 oz each of frozen strawberries, peaches, and pineapple.
- Lemon: Follow the fruit with 1 sliced lemon.
- Mint: Finally, add fresh mint as a garnish.
As for tools, this recipe keeps it as simple as can be. All you need is a pitcher and ½ cup measuring cup!

This looks delicious! And even better because it’s simple! I’m having company this evening and would like to prepare this in advance. Would it be OK to put the fruit, the wine and triple sec and save the champagne for right before serving? Or when do you suggest getting it ready.
Carmen Herndon says
Do you add sugar?
Sweet or Non-Sweet frozen fruit??
Erin says
Hi Carmen, nope, I don't add sugar, but you can if you'd like and just regular frozen fruit. Let me know how yours comes out!!

If I make this ahead of time (day before) will the champagne get flat?
