With the 4th of July coming up I’ve been experimenting with red, white, and blue foods.   In addition to red, white, and blue foods, I needed something cool and refreshing to drink.  I’ve been on a huge sangria kick lately so I decided to try my hand at a festive one for the holiday.  I also thought it would be great to bring to this week’s Sunday Supper picnic event!

Red, White, and Blue Sangria is a fun and patriotic beverage!

I used strawberries for the red, blueberries for the blue, and a Pinot Grigio for the white.  It worked out well as the blueberries sank to the bottom while the strawberries floated on top making a clear red, white, and blue beverage.  The taste was fruity and slightly sweet and since it was chilled it was perfect for sipping at a summer BBQ.  I stuck these fun Red and White Striped Straws in the sangria for us to drink from.

  2. I’m not sure if it’s kind of new, or just new to me, but I’m loving fruit chunks actually in the drinks. They look good and I’m sure they add a wonderful flavor burst as well.

  3. Sangria is the best summer drink! How cool that you were really able to separate the colors — every time I try to do that everything just blends right in together! =(
