Strawberry & Watermelon Sangria – Posh Bird Sangria
Strawberry & Watermelon Sangria – Posh Bird Sangria
Let the sun shine – please! Then I can make this Strawberry & Watermelon sangria recipe!!
Here we have a lovely twist on a tradition sangria recipe.
We called it ‘Posh’ Sangria, as it has a wonderful blend of Strawberry Pimms and watermelon – so so good.
Watermelon is so good for you and gives this drink the most wonder flavour, light and soooo refreshing too!
With all the chopped fruit that’s added – it’s almost healthy right?
Please give it a try.
Such a refreshing change from wine and beer and it looks so elegant in a nice jug or pitcher on any drinks table in the garden.
Top Tip for your sangria
Please Remember
A top tip, don’t add loads of ice to the jug as it simply waters it down.
Add ice to the glass then pour it over the ice and knock it back… not too quickly mind
Sangria – what actually is it?
The definition of sangria according to Wikipedia is an alcoholic beverage of Spanish origin.
A punch, the sangria traditionally consists of red wine and chopped fruit, often with other ingredients such as orange juice or brandy. So now you know!
Have a go at our Sangria recipe you won’t regret it!
And if you fancy a lovely light sangria why not try our Easy Champagne Sangria it’s flipping lovely!
