Lemon Lime Sangria Recipes

SANGRIA BY THE PROS

Steps:

• Slice the orange, lemon, and lime into thin rounds. Place the citrus in a pitcher with the apples, cherries, and pineapple. Pour in the brandy and refrigerate for 2 hours of more. Chill the bottle of red wine, lemon-lime soda, and orange juice at the same time.
• Gently crush the fruits with a spoon, then stir in the red wine, lemon-lime soda, and orange juice. Add additional brandy or orange juice to taste.

CLASSIC SPANISH SANGRIA

Steps:

• Have the fruit, rum, wine, and orange juice well chilled. Slice the lemon, lime and orange into thin rounds and place in a large glass pitcher. Pour in the rum and sugar. Chill in refrigerator for 2 hours to develop the flavors.
• When ready to serve, crush the fruit lightly with a wooden spoon and stir in the wine and orange juice. Adjust sweetness to taste.

LEMON-LIME MARGARITA SANGRIA

Steps:

• Slice oranges, lemons, and limes. Reserve six slices of each, place in a zipper bag, and refrigerate (you'll add these to the sangria before serving).
• Add remaining slices to a large pitcher. Using a muddler or a hefty wooden spoon, mash the fruit until juicy. Pour in the wine, tequila, and Cointreau. Stir. Drizzle in the honey.
• Cover and refrigerate for 4-6 hours.
• Remove muddled citrus with tongs, or, if you prefer a pulp-free margarita sangria, pour the mixture through a strainer and return it to the pitcher. Stir. Taste and add additional honey if desired. Drop in reserved fruit slices.
• Divide sangria and fruit between six glasses and top each with 1/3 cup lemon-lime soda. Serve.

WHITE STRAWBERRY-LEMON SANGRIA

Steps:

• Add lemon slices to a large pitcher, then the apples and strawberries. (I love this pitcher which seals airtight and fits easily into narrow refrigerator spaces.)
• Pour the wine and rum over the top.
• Cover and place in the refrigerator for 4 - 5 hours.
• Remove from refrigerator and add the lemon lime soda. Add a few pieces of the fruit to your glass and pour sangria over to serve.
• Leftovers keep for a day or so, but you likely won't have any! :)

LEMON LIME SANGRIA

Steps:

• Slice and seed lemons and limes crosswise.
• In a bowl combine lemons, limes, sugar and salt, let stand for 1 hour.
• Pour fruit into serving pitcher; add lemoncello, vodka, Cava wine and ice, stir to blend.
• (stand time - 1 hour).

• Enjoy!
