Ingredients
Ingredients
- 6 cups tropical frozen fruit mixture (pineapple, mango, papaya, and passion fruit blend recommended)
- 1 (750 ml) bottle Sauvignon blanc, chilled
- ⅓ cup elderflower liqueur (such as St. Germain)
- ½ cup calamansi juice (freshly squeezed or bottled)
- Maraschino cherries or fresh mint leaves, for garnish
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: Add the 6 cups of tropical frozen fruit mixture, chilled bottle of Sauvignon blanc, ⅓ cup of elderflower liqueur, and ½ cup of calamansi juice into a blender.
- Blend Until Smooth: Process all ingredients together in the blender until the mixture reaches a smooth, slush-like consistency without large chunks of fruit remaining.
- Serve and Garnish: Pour the tropical sangria slush into serving glasses, and garnish each glass with a maraschino cherry or a sprig of fresh mint. Serve immediately to enjoy the chilled, refreshing texture and flavors.
Notes
- If calamansi juice is not available, substitute with a mix of fresh lime and orange juice for a similar tart and citrusy flavor.
- For a non-alcoholic version, replace the Sauvignon blanc and elderflower liqueur with sparkling white grape juice and elderflower syrup respectively.
- Adjust the sweetness by adding a little honey or simple syrup if desired, depending on the sweetness of your frozen fruit blend.
- Use fresh mint sprigs as garnish to enhance aroma and presentation.
- Serve immediately after blending to maintain the slushy texture; if left standing, the mixture will thaw quickly.
