This White Sangria Recipe is light and refreshing, serve for July 4th celebrations, picnics, BBQ, and cookouts, or any summer party.
Made with sweet summer fruit and white wine, for this white wine sangria I used strawberries, raspberries, pineapple, blueberries, and apples to get a "red white, and blue" look, and the fruit infuses into the wine and looks so pretty. Serve this light and refreshing drink all summer long...
Let's Make Sangria
- Slice strawberries and cut pineapple chunks, place in pitcher.
- Add blueberries and raspberries.
- Make the stars for garnish, squeeze lemon juice over the stars to keep them from turning brown.
- Pour a bottle of wine into the pitcher.
- Mix, cover, and chill in the fridge overnight.
- Serve in glasses on ice with straws, and flag pics, and white apple stars for garnish.
- Optional: Add a splash of 7up or sparkling water when serving.
Serving Tips
Serve in a glass over ice, or with fun ice cubes frozen in different shapes. Try freezing fruit or berries into the ice cubes for a fun touch.
Add some additional splashes of sparkling water or champagne. Anything bubbly adds a festive sparkle!
Apple Stars are cut from ¼ round slices of apple. I used Granny Smith apples but any apples will work. Cut the stars with small star cookie cutters, and placed the cut apple stars in a small bowl with freshly squeezed lemon juice to keep them a fresh white color. Just pour the stars and the lemon juice right in the pitcher, and garnish with a couple of stars on each glass of white sangria!
What Other Fruit Works?
- raspberries
- strawberries
- blueberries
- watermelon
- peaches
- pineapple
- lemons
- oranges
- apples
For Sangria to be well...Sangria, it should have at least two different fruits with one citrus fruit. Classic Spanish red wine sangria is made with red wine, lemons, limes, and oranges.
Use a crisp dry white wine, a sauvignon blanc or pinot grigio works well for this white sangria as it is lighter than chardonnay. I have used Chardonnay many times and it is delicious as well.
The basic idea of Sangria is to slice fruit so it infuses into the WHITE wine. Let it chill in the fridge overnight in a large pitcher at least 5 hours so the fruit can infuse. If you like it sweeter, stir in some sugar, apple juice, simple syrup, ginger ale or 7up.

This looks so festive and refreshing. I love Sangria and there are so many ways to make it different by varying the fruits used. Love this!

These Sangrias looks so appetizing for a drink, and also very festive. Perfect for the holiday!
The berries really make it patriotic, and I has fun with the garnish of course!
White apple stars! What a brilliant, fun twist. I think I'll try mixing up a batch of this for our next BBQ.
Fun little stars aren't they? Just takes a couple seconds and makes the sangira so July 4th!
I used champagne and it was a hit. Very festive.
Happy July 4th Denise! Isn't it a fun sangria? We love it with friends all summer long. Thanks for your rating and comment, and making the recipe!!!
I just love making up a batch of sangria and this one has so many variations to play with. What's your favorite? I have only used white wine and 7-Up so far but I'm curious about trying the red wine and adding champagne or Prosecco to the white in place of the 7-up. So many choices!
