Vegan Sangria - Vegan recipe hero image

Sangria has always held a special place in my heart, reminding me of warm summer evenings spent with friends under the stars.

There’s something magical about a big pitcher of this vibrant drink being shared, and I love how versatile it is!

You can mix and match fruits based on what you have, and it always turns out beautifully.

Plus, it’s a delightful way to celebrate the bounty of the season.

What Makes This Recipe Special

  • Made with simple, plant-based ingredients that are easy to find
  • No animal products - completely vegan and cruelty-free
  • Perfect for beginners and experienced cooks alike
  • Delicious results that everyone will love, vegan or not

Ingredients & Substitutions

When choosing your wine, make sure it’s labeled vegan; some wines use animal products during the fining process. I often use a mix of whatever fruits are in season, so feel free to get creative! You can even add a splash of brandy or other spirits for an extra kick, but it’s just as lovely without.

Tips & Notes

  • I love to keep my sangria in a glass pitcher so everyone can admire the beautiful colors of the fruits.
  • For a fun twist, try adding some fresh mint leaves for a refreshing aroma!

Recipe Variations

  • Sometimes I’ll swap out the red wine for white wine or even some kombucha for a non-alcoholic version.
  • You can also experiment with spices like star anise or clove for a different flavor profile.

Storage & Freezing

If you have leftovers, keep them in the fridge for up to 3 days. Just remember to add more sparkling water each time you serve it to keep that fizz!

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make this ahead of time?

Absolutely! It actually gets better if you let it sit overnight in the fridge. Just wait to add the sparkling water until you're ready to serve.
