A refreshing twist on the classic white sangria, perfect for summer gatherings.
Slice the orange, lemon, and lime into thin rounds.
Ensure the slices are thin to release more flavor into the sangria.
In a large pitcher, combine the white wine, orange liqueur, and sugar. Stir until the sugar dissolves.
Mixing the sugar with the liquids first ensures it dissolves completely.
Add the sliced fruits to the pitcher and gently stir.
Gently stir to avoid breaking the fruit slices.
Refrigerate the sangria for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.
Chilling enhances the infusion of flavors from the fruits.
Just before serving, add the sparkling water and mint leaves to the pitcher.
Add the sparkling water last to retain its fizz.
Serve the sangria in glasses over ice, garnished with additional mint leaves if desired.
Use clear glasses to showcase the vibrant colors of the sangria.
