Virgin Sangria

A mock sangria cocktail with fresh juice, fruit pieces and soda water. A great non-alcoholic alternative to the classic, perfect for a hot Summer’s day.

Sangria weather is here! Sangria is one of my favourite drinks for summer but I don’t normally like to drink a lot of alcohol, it seems to catch up with me far too quickly (I’m a lightweight, basically.) 

So this is a non-alocholic Virgin Sangria I can happily sip on all day and it tastes just as delicious! 

It’s also more hydrating, which helps in this weather.

I love scooping the juice-soaked fruit out from the bottom of the glass to eat afterwards. So delicious! 

This Mocktail is: 

• Dairy-free & vegan
• Gluten-free & paleo-friendly
• Fruit-sweetened
• Fat-free
• Super easy to make
• Refreshing and healthy!

Making a non-alcholic Sangria

Fruit Juice

The best fruit juices to use here are grape juice, cranberry juice and orange juice.

You can also experiment with apple juice.

Chopped fruits

The best part! I love using apples, oranges, strawberries and lemons but you can experiment with whatever is in season.

Peaches and cherries would also be incredible.

Cinnamon

This is optional but allowing a stick of cinnamon to infuse in the juice for at least a few hours before serving, really takes it to a new level and brings it closer to a more familiar sangria.

Soda water

For a bit of sparkle, I recommend soda water or you can also use just sparkling water.
