Fresh and fruity White Sangria made with white wine, triple sec, fresh orange juice and lemon juice.
I think we need to continue with this Blogiversary Celebration and have a sip (or a pitcher) of this fresh and fruity White Sangria. Is there any better way to celebrate? Right… Nope, there isn’t.
So many of you came by yesterday and made my day. Your congratulatory messages mean the world to me and for that I thank you. I wish I could hug you all. You rock!
WHITE SANGRIA
Now let’s settle in and pretend that we are done with the laundry, done with dinner, the kids are in bed, and we are all about to enjoy a glass of this White Sangria. Ahhhh… Feels good, dunnit?
Smell the orange scent? You might think it’s just all those oranges in there, but there is also a very healthy dose of Triple Sec. And freshly squeezed orange juice. I also threw in some lemon juice and an entire bottle of wine… We all need a pick me up.
If it seems that you can throw just about anything into this pitcher and call it a Sangria, you would be right! Just don’t forget the wine. Without the wine, it’s a Citrus Spritzer. Which is also pretty amazing.
But, that’s how this White Sangria recipe was born. I started playing around with some citrus fruits and then I proceeded to throw everything-alcohol-related into a big pitcher. Before you know it, I was in the process of making one of the best Sangria recipes, ever. EVER!
I was a bit (read: a lot!) tipsy afterwards! Don’t tell my kids. I tell them that the stuff in those 100+ bottles in the cabinet is poison. They believe it! 😃
Cheers to Diethood!
ENJOY!

This is amazingly refreshing. Not too sweet, with just the right amount of citrus. Every person at my party said it was a ‘keeper.’
Soooo pretty!
I need this by the pool. Congrats on your blogiversary, Katerina!!! I just love these gorgeous photos (especially first one)!
Sounds like the perfect summer sipper!
Triple sec + white wine! This is my kind of drink! (Methinks we would be besties after two glasses) 😀
Cheers to you and congratulations on your blogiversary! So glad you came back to blogging. 🙂 Gorgeous pics and I really, really, REALLY need a glass of that right now.
SO gorgeous, Kate! Perfect summer sip!
I love me some Sangria! The hubs and I are heading out tonight for some local sangria(finally!). But when we get super busy to do date night I MUST try this!
Blaze si vi! Have fun!!

Beautiful Sangria, Kate! Love the flavors and the photography! Cheers!
Sangria is one of my favorites. This is gorgeous.
Kate,
This completely beats the box wine + Fresca Sangria that I used to drink.
(Though I’ve still got the box wine, I’ve just lost the 2L bottle)
Thanks!
I’ll take at least a few glasses, plus refills 🙂 Gorgeous! Pinned!
