    This spring white wine sangria with fresh peppermint is light, fruity and delicious! It takes only 5 minutes to prepare a pitcher of this Spanish cocktail.

    Sangria is my favorite white wine cocktail. The flavor from the fruit is infused into the beverage, giving it a fresh and vibrant taste, perfect for spring or Easter holiday celebrations for the adults to enjoy.

    It has a nice mix of spirits and sweetener. If you've never tried this refreshing Easter white wine sangria in the springtime, you're definitely missing out.

    🍓 Ingredients

    Spring white wine sangria ingredients prepped on light wooden background.
    • white wine - A dry, crisp white wine such as Sauvignon Blanc works great for this recipe. Make sure it is nice and chilled. You can substitute with rosé or chardonnay if you like.
    • brandy - If needed, you can substitute with triple sec or rum but I do love the taste of brandy in this sangria cocktail.
    • lemon-lime soda - Such as Sprite, 7-Up or store-brand.
    • strawberries - Try to pick strawberries that are consistent in size and bright red.
    • peaches - You want your peaches to be ripe but not too-ripe or they won't look as nice when you cut them and add them to your sangria.
    • oranges - I use navel oranges but blood oranges would look pretty cool too.
    • mint - Adding fresh peppermint gives extra fresh, spring vibes.

    *Check recipe card for full ingredient amounts.

    Chef's Note: If desired, you can add one or two more of your favorite fruits such as raspberries (like I do in my raspberry twist cocktail), mangoes or another citrus fruit. Fresh fruit is ideal but frozen fruit tends to be cheaper so you can use that if you prefer. The frozen fruit will thaw pretty quickly in the drink; it just doesn't look as nice and fresh, in my opinion.

    Pro Tip: Make sure the ingredients are nice and chilled before preparing the sangria!

    🍑 Tips on Slicing the Fruit

    When you slice fruit for a white sangria, you want them to look as beautiful and fresh as possible because they are very visible in a white wine sangria.

    • Clean: First of all, make sure all of the fruit is cleaned well.
    • Oranges: My favorite way to slice the oranges is to cut them into thin slices and then slice them in half again, forming a half-circle (as seen above). They look stunning in the drink and they aren't overly large.
    • Strawberries: Cut off the green tops and then slice thinly lengthwise.
    • Peaches: Pit the peaches and slice into thin wedges. I leave the peel on because I think it looks better.

    Chef's Note: If you would like to adjust the sweetness, add a touch of agave nectar. It blends well into the beverage. Or, add some more of the soda.

    Chef's Note: You can serve it immediately or let the wine soak into the fruit for a couple of hours in the fridge before serving.

    🧀 What to Eat With White Sangria

    • Appetizer: Try this baked brie cheese appetizer because--wine and cheese are a classic combination.
    • Main dish: White wine tastes amazing with creamy, buttery pasta. Try my creamy lemon basil pasta.
    • Dessert: Light, lemony desserts and pastries pair amazingly with white sangria so give my no-bake lemon bars a try.
