Frozen Sangria
Calling all fellow Sangria lovers! Here is a great way to serve a crowd Sangria for Cinco de Mayo or any other occasion because to me it goes with all occasions. YUM!
Prep: 10 min., Freeze: 24 hr. This makes about 24 servings without breaking the bank. Total cost is about $13.
Makes about 1 1/2 gal.
Ingredients
- 1 gal. sangría
- 1 (12-oz.) can frozen limeade, thawed
- 1 (2-liter) bottle lemon-lime soft drink
- 2 cups sliced oranges, lemons, and limes
1. Place 1 (2-gal.) zip-top plastic freezer bag inside another 2-gal. zip-top plastic freezer bag. Place bags in a large bowl. Combine sangría, limeade, and lemon-lime soft drink in the inside bag. Seal both bags, and freeze 24 hours. (Double bagging is a precaution to avoid spills.)
2. Remove mixture from freezer 1 hour before serving, squeezing occasionally until slushy. Transfer mixture to a 2-gal. container. Stir in fruit.
Kid-Friendly Frozen Sangría: Substitute cranberry juice for sangría. Proceed with recipe as directed

I’m going to try the kid friendly version—Thanks!
Sounds delicious…I wonder if frozen white grape juice would be work, too?
Mmmm this looks good! And easy!
I love the display. Last year I bought one of those jars w/the spout from PB. (was such a hit) The fresh cut up fruit really adds a special touch to it. Such a great recipe to! (try adding 1 cup brandy) It gives it that extra oomph…YUM! Another great post Joanna! (I could live on your site)
