WATERMELON AND BLACKBERRY SANGRIA
This watermelon sangria is deliciously pink! Living in the zinfandel wine country of Northern California, I use our local fare in my recipes often. Our scorching summer months inspired this refreshing, light style of sangria. I like adding fresh blackberries and garnishing it with sprigs of mint or basil for personal flair. This easy recipe is perfect for entertaining, and it's especially brunch friendly. —Carolyn Kumpe, El Dorado, California

Steps:
- Bring the sugar and 1/2 cup water to a boil in a small saucepan, stirring occasionally until the sugar has dissolved, about 5 minutes. Boil the syrup for 1 minute longer, then remove the saucepan from the heat. Let cool, then transfer the syrup to a 3-quart pitcher.
- Add the wine, liqueur, vodka, soda water and lemon juice to the pitcher, and stir to combine. Add the blackberries and blueberries, and cover the pitcher with plastic wrap. Refrigerate the sangria to chill, at least 4 hours up to overnight.
- To serve, pick out 8 blueberries and 8 blackberries and cut a slit halfway through each. Garnish the rim of 8 glasses with 1 blueberry and 1 blackberry each then fill the glasses halfway with ice. Pour the sangria and remaining berries into each glass.
Tips:
- Choose ripe, juicy watermelon and blackberries: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the flavor of your sangria. Look for watermelon that is heavy for its size and has a deep red color. Blackberries should be plump and dark purple.
- Chill your ingredients: Chilling the watermelon, blackberries, and white wine before making the sangria will help to keep it cold and refreshing.
- Use a variety of citrus fruits: Oranges, limes, and lemons all add a bright, citrusy flavor to sangria. You can use any combination of citrus fruits that you like.
- Add a splash of brandy or rum: A small amount of brandy or rum can add a nice depth of flavor to sangria. However, be careful not to add too much, or the sangria will become too strong.
- Let the sangria sit for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors to meld together and develop.
- Serve the sangria over ice: This will help to keep it cold and refreshing.
- Garnish the sangria with fresh mint or basil: This will add a touch of freshness and flavor.
Conclusion:
Watermelon and blackberry sangria is a refreshing and flavorful summer cocktail that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own taste. So next time you are looking for a delicious and refreshing drink, give watermelon and blackberry sangria a try.
