Why You’ll Love This Sweet Tea Sangria

Summertime perfection – I do love a great cocktail, especially in the summertime and this Sweet Tea Sangria is perfect for summer barbecues, brunches or showers.

Homemade sweet tea – I used my own homemade sweet tea recipe to make this iced tea sangria but your own recipe or store-bought sweet tea will work just fine.

Southern twist on a classic drink – This wine and tea cocktail is adds a nice southern spin to a classic sangria. It will quickly become of your favorites, as it already has mine.

Easy to make – Whenever you have some fresh summer fruit lying around, whip up a quick batch of sweet tea and mix it with a bottle of white wine. Toss in your favorite fruit then let it sit a few hours before enjoying – it really couldn’t be easier.

Sweet Tea Sangria Ingredients

• Sweet tea: Any brand of sweet tea will work or you can make your own homemade sweet tea.
• White wine: The sweet tea will add the sweetness so opt for a dryer, crisp white wine such as a Pinot Grigio/Gris, Sauvignon Blanc, Grenache Blanc or a dry Riesling such as a French Riesling. If you’re unsure just go with the old adage, use what you like to drink, and a sangria doesn’t need a fancy bottle of wine.
• Fresh Fruit: This recipe calls for raspberries and peaches but the beauty of sangria is that many fruit combinations will work. Nectarines, plums, apricots and strawberries would pair well with this recipe in any combination that you prefer.
• Fresh mint: To garnish.
