Description
A refreshing and elegant Sangria Mocktail combining non-alcoholic Sauvignon Blanc with fresh citrus fruits, berries, and floral notes like elderflower cordial. Perfect for any occasion, this mocktail is light, fruity, and beautifully garnished with edible flowers for a sophisticated touch.
Ingredients
Liquids
- 1 bottle non-alcoholic Sauvignon Blanc (or substitute with Pinot Grigio, Riesling, or sparkling grape/apple juice)
- 1/4 to 1/2 cup elderflower cordial or syrup (or replace with floral tea such as chamomile, rose, or hibiscus for lower sugar)
- 1 cup pineapple juice (can be replaced with orange or grapefruit juice)
Fruits
- 2 sliced citrus fruits of your choice (lime, lemon, orange, or grapefruit)
- 1/2 cup sliced strawberries or raspberries (any seasonal berries can be used)
Garnish
- Edible flowers
Instructions
- Muddle Citrus: Add the sliced citrus fruits to a pitcher and gently muddle them to release their fresh juices, which forms the base flavor of the mocktail.
- Add Liquids and Ice: Fill the pitcher with ice cubes, then pour in the elderflower cordial, pineapple juice, and non-alcoholic wine. Stir gently to combine the flavors evenly. Taste and adjust sweetness or acidity by adding more elderflower syrup, juice, or a sweetener if desired.
- Add Berries and Flowers: Incorporate the sliced strawberries or raspberries along with edible flowers into the pitcher for color, flavor, and a touch of elegance.
- Serve: Pour the sangria mocktail over ice-filled wine glasses, garnishing with extra fruit slices and edible flowers. For a bubbly finish, top with a splash of sparkling water to enhance refreshment.
Notes
- For a lower sugar version, substitute elderflower syrup with floral teas like chamomile, rose, or hibiscus.
- Use any seasonal berries you prefer or have available for a personalized twist.
- Top with sparkling water to add a fizzy element for more refreshing mouthfeel.
- Non-alcoholic wines vary greatly in flavor, so choose one you enjoy to best match your taste.
- Edible flowers add a beautiful garnish but are optional; ensure they are food-safe.
