Mango Lime Sangria
This past 4th of July weekend, I concocted a beverage that may be the best sangria I’ve ever made. That’s saying a lot, especially since this is made with white wine and I typically prefer to drink a flavorful red.
The inspiration came from the fresh mangoes and excessive amount of limes that we had on stock in our fridge. The resulting beverage is light and refreshing — and tastes deceptively like fruit juice.
Ingredients
- 1 bottle of pinot grigio (750ml)
- 1 cup mango juice
- 1/2 cup lemon juice
- 1/2 cup lime juice (or about four limes)
- 1/2 cup sugar
Note: For this recipe, I used fresh squeezed lime juice, and I purchased the mango juice and lemon juice in the bottle. I don’t have a juicer so fresh mango juice would’ve been a huge amount of manual labor. If you have the proper equipment, I recommend using fresh, homemade juice. But if you don’t, this recipe is still delicious with juice bought from the store.
