Blackberry Sangria Recipe

Easy recipes are my favorite – I have said this so many times.

And I keep repeating it because it’s one of my truths.

I love to cook and make cocktails but I spend so much time in the kitchen that I am always trying to make the next best, easy, delicious recipe I can.

This blackberry sangria recipe is just that – easy and simple and perfect for summer.

How To Make Blackberry Brandy Sangria

To make blackberry sangria, you will need a pitcher and a strong spoon or muddler.

Begin by adding the blackberries and lemon and lime juice to the pitcher.

Muddle the berries until about half have been smashed.

Then add the red wine, white rum, and blackberry brandy and stir. Looks sooo good already, right?

Place the pitcher in the refrigerator to chill for 2-3 hours.

When you are ready to serve, add the lemon-lime soda and some fresh lemon and lime slices.

So simple right?

What’s in blackberry sangria?

You will need a bottle of red wine, white rum, blackberry brandy, lemons and limes, lemon-lime soda, and blackberries.

If you want to use frozen blackberries, make sure the berries are completely defrosted.

Also, you can use frozen blackberries as an ice substitute when serving or in addition to ice.

What can I use instead of blackberry brandy?

I completely understand if you don’t want to buy a bottle of blackberry brandy for just one recipe.

You will use a lot of a bottle however, and can use the rest to make my berry rose sangria.

If that doesn’t change your mind, look for blackberry liqueur or blackberry vodka when shopping.
