Sangria is definitely one of my favorite drinks. It’s super delicious and easy to make.

You can add any type of fruit you like. I had some strawberries, lime, and oranges I needed to use, and I thought that would make a great combo for summer. Well, it’s not actually summer yet, but close enough.

This sangria is refreshing and not super sweet. Instead of making a simple syrup using a ton of sugar, I used the sweetness of the strawberries with a little bit of sugar. Yum!

Strawberry Syrup Ingredients

• 2 cups strawberries, diced
• 1-2 tablespoons organic sugar or agave (depending on how sweet you like it)
• 1-2 tablespoons water (use same amount as sugar)
