White Lightning Sangria Recipe

By , About.com Guide

A flashy Sangria that is sure to light up any back deck party, this white wine Sangria is easy to make and quick to refill. It offers a powerful "cocktail-like" punch with its dash of vodka.

Prep Time: 08 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 Bottle of white wine (Riesling, Albarino, Chablis, Gewurztraminer, Pinot Gris, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc)
  • 1/2 cup Vodka
  • 1/2 cup white grape juice
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 cup sliced grapes (seedless, green or red)
  • 1 green apple sliced
  • 1/2 pineapple sliced
  • 2 cups club soda or ginger ale

Preparation:

Pour wine and vodka in the pitcher and add sliced grapes, tangerine and pineapple. Next add sugar and stir gently. Chill mixture for at least one hour. Add club soda just before serving.

If you'd like to serve your Sangria right away, use chilled white wine and club soda and serve over lots of ice.

Addition ideas: sliced strawberries, a handful of fresh blackberries, banana slices, a half cup of citrus soda pop.
