Customize this Simple White Sangria with your favorite fruits for a delicious beverage on a hot day!
I love wine and it is my favorite alcoholic beverage. Sometimes, when you can't drink alcohol or don't want to drink alcohol, it is hard because you may feel like you do not fit in. This past summer, I was not drinking alcohol. That summer included my brother's wedding, my husband's 30th birthday party, my sister-in-laws bachelorette party, my baby shower, my sister-in-laws bridal shower, etc.
I can have a good time without alcohol of course and often choose to even when others are drinking. Some of these times though, it would have been really nice to have something that I could have drank when I couldn't have any alcohol. For example, at the bachelorette party, I wanted to be included but felt weird having nothing to drink when other people were drinking.
I recently learned about Fre Alcohol-Removed wines. This is a great product because they taste like wine without the alcohol. It would be great for those who just choose not to drink alcohol but still enjoy the taste of wine. Also, pending your doctors approval, this would be a good product if you are not supposed to drink alcohol for medical reasons.
I created this non-alcoholic sangria recipe for parties such as a baby shower or other times when you are celebrating an event and someone doesn't drink alcohol. This way, they can have something delicious and still feel included.

Ingredients:

1 thinly sliced orange
1 thinly sliced peach
1 thinly sliced green or red apple
1 thinly sliced lime
1 thinly sliced plum

This recipe is perfect for summer with all of the fresh fruit! I love fruit in my drinks and this one was very good. It is like a mix of sparkling grape juice and wine flavor-wise.
I served it to my mom, sister, husband and I and we all loved it. The fruit soaks up the wine flavor and is awesome. I let it sit for about an hour in the fridge before we drank it which was perfect. It is plenty sweet enough that it doesn't need any added sugar.
