Citrus Sangria

This citrus sangria is a crowd pleaser! It has a light and bright flavor from the citrus fruit that makes it so refreshing and tasty. It’s the perfect balance of tart from the grapefruit and a hint of sweet from the orange. Although citrus fruit is often found in summertime drinks, I always like to serve them during the winter holidays too! Especially since we could all use an extra dose of vitamin C during that time.

The added grapefruit and orange slices give this pitcher of sangria a beautiful look, but also adds extra flavor into the drink! Be sure to wash your grapefruit and oranges before slicing to ensure they are clean going into the sangria!
