Blackberry Sangria Recipes

BLACKBERRY SANGRIA

Steps:

• Instructions for simple syrup (see note):
• In a small saucepan, add the water and sugar. Bring to a boil for 2-3 until sugar is dissolved and the water is clear. Add in blackberries and simmer for about 10 minutes or until the blackberries are mushy. Transfer to the cheesecloth and squeeze all of the juice into a small bowl. If using a mesh strainer, press down to get most of the juice. Allow to completely cool before using in the sangria.
• In a pitcher or desired serving dish, add the wine, brandy, blackberry simple syrup from above, and all the fruit. Allow to sit overnight in the fridge to fully infuse the fruit flavors into the punch. Add the ginger ale and ice just before serving.
