Ingredients
Scale
1 bottle (750 ml) dry white wine, chilled
1/2 cup brandy
1/4 cup orange liqueur (like Triple Sec)
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 orange, thinly sliced
1 lemon, thinly sliced
1 cup frozen green grapes
1 cup frozen red grapes
Instructions
In a large pitcher, combine the chilled white wine, brandy, orange liqueur, and sugar. Stir until the sugar dissolves completely.
Add the sliced orange and lemon to the pitcher.
Refrigerate the mixture for at least 2 hours, or up to 4 hours, to allow the fruit flavors to infuse the wine.
When ready to serve, add the frozen green grapes and frozen red grapes directly into the pitcher. These act as your ice cubes.
Stir gently and serve immediately. Refill with more frozen grapes as needed to keep the sangria cold.
Notes
For best results, freeze your grapes on a baking sheet in a single layer before adding them to the sangria.
You can substitute the orange liqueur with an extra 1/4 cup of orange juice if preferred.
This recipe works well with Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc as the base white wine.
