I just whipped up the ultimate grownup beverage for the 4th of July: frozen sangria. All the delicious fruitiness of your favorite sangria, all the frosty summertime buzz of a frozen margarita. You won't believe how easy it is. And those antioxidants (from the blueberries)! That vitamin C (the strawberries)! Oh yes, this one is a keeper. I bet it would make a superb sorbet too...but that's tomorrow's project....
Frozen sangria with berries
- 2 cups frozen strawberries, hulled (if you want to use fresh strawberries, clean and hull them, then stick them in the freezer in a plastic container for an hour)
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1 peach, cut into chunks
- juice of 1 lime
- 3 cups fruity white wine (I used a lovely Vouvray)
- 1/4 cup triple sec
Put all ingredients in a blender and push the button. Blend until smooth. Serve immediately.

Erika, with or without the booze this Frozen Sangria is a keeper. Love that we can use fresh or frozen berries. Perfect for entertaining this July 4th! xo
All those years I lived in Spain and I never came across this. Wow, it looks amazing!
Thanks ladies! I'm not much of a drinker but am looking forward to serving this to my friends....
I love all the fresh and natural ingredients in this mix. So many drinks are chock full of additives and other unnatural junk...this looks delightful!
You had me at sangria. :)
Update: I put the leftovers in the freezer overnight, then broke it up this morning with a fork. It's sangria granita. To die for.
This is gorgeous and so perfect as I sit here planning my 4th of July activities today. GREG
I'm gonna try to make it by myself. Hope it will so tasty as you described:)))
Awesome sangria slushie. Feels good to know you can get your vitamins and a buzz in the same glass.
I am fairly certain I could have this everyday for the rest of summer and be totally content!!
You guys are so great! Thanks for all the compliments and "likes" and support! This post is getting lots and lots of traffic and drove me to my highest-ever traffic day yesterday (pageviews AND visits)!
One note I wanted to make: Some people may prefer a sweeter slush. I definitely like things less sweet, but if you want it sweeter, add some sugar, simple syrup, or agave.
This looks awesome. I've never thought to make a frozen sangria!
