This 5 minute refreshing pina colada sangria is perfect for parties, picnics and Mother's Day! It uses 8 simple ingredients, including fresh pineapple, and will surely impress you guests. Enjoy it along side this fruit dip and peach salsa.
Add all ingredients, other than the optional coconut shreds, into the pitcher + mix.
Add ice to the pitcher + gently mix again.
Optional - Garnish the rim of your glasses with coconut shreds. Do this by adding the coconut shreds into a shallow bowl. Using a piece of pineapple (or simple syrup), rub the top of the glass until it is wet + slightly sticky. Then, insert the top of the glass directly into the coconut shreds, slightly twisting the glass.
Add ice into the glass + optional extra pineapple slices, cherries or pineapple stem. Pour the sangria into the glass. Cheers!
Notes
*Due to the added rum, pineapple juice + coconut water, this sangria is on the sweeter side. If you prefer a very sweet sangria, use Moscato. I personally use Sauvignon Blanc, which I find balances the flavors.If you are storing the sangria, do not add the ice. It will store well in the fridge for 24 hours.To save on time, buy pre-cut pineapple, canned pineapple without sugar or frozen pineapple. If using frozen, allow to thaw or use less ice.
