Serve your white wine sangria chilled, garnished with fresh fruit slices for an eye-catching presentation. Pair it with light appetizers like cheese platters, seafood, or tapas to complement its fruity notes.

The flavours will meld beautifully overnight, making it even more delicious when you're ready to serve. Store any leftovers in a sealed pitcher for up to two days.
