The holidays are always a great time to try out new drink recipe ideas that are festive, refreshing, and pretty to serve at a party. Pomegranate Mint Sangria is an excellent option for the holidays or parties
throughout the year.
Sangria is a Spanish cocktail combining sweet wine, fresh fruit, and other ingredients and typically served to guests during parties and holidays. I prefer to use a sweet Prosecco wine with this recipe, but you can use your favorite dry white wine if you prefer. You can easily make this sangria by combining fresh-squeezed lime juice, a little splash of rum, and fresh mint and pomegranate seeds. Make it in larger batches for a bigger crowd and chill before serving. Enjoy!
I hope you enjoy this recipe! If you’ve made it please share it with me by tagging @culinary.butterfly on Instagram or @culinarybutterfly on Pinterest, or by using the hashtag #culinarybutterfly on Facebook
