Mixed Berry Summer Sangria Recipe

Mixed Berry Summer Sangria Recipe

Sangria is totally the drink of summer. There is nothing quite like a cool glass of wine, fruit and spirits at the end of a long, summer day. In winter, I usually make a red wine sangria but, for summer, I prefer a mixed berry summer sangria.

Notes

You can substitute the raspberry lemonade with regular lemonade. It may require additional simple syrup though because the regular lemonade will be more tart than raspberry.
The nutritional values calculated here account for all of the simple syrup but you will only use 2 tablespoons of syrup.
