Sangria (Grape Juice + Fresh Fruits)

 Sangria (Grape Juice + Fresh Fruits)

Description:

The Non-Alcoholic Sangria is a beautiful, halal-friendly version of the classic Spanish drink — full of color, freshness, and natural sweetness. Made with grape juice, fresh fruits, and a hint of citrus, it delivers the same rich, fruity depth as traditional sangria without any alcohol. Perfect for family gatherings, festive dinners, or hot summer days, this elegant drink adds a touch of sophistication to your table while remaining 100% halal and refreshing.

Ingredients:

• 2 cups grape juice (preferably red or purple, chilled)

• 1 cup orange juice (freshly squeezed)

• ½ cup sparkling water or soda water

• 1 apple, thinly sliced

• 1 orange, thinly sliced

• ½ lemon, thinly sliced

• ½ cup berries (strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries)

• 1–2 tsp honey or sugar syrup (optional)

• Ice cubes (as needed)

• Mint leaves (for garnish)

Instructions:

1. In a large jug or pitcher, combine the grape juice and orange juice. Stir well to blend the flavors.

2. Add the sliced fruits — apple, orange, lemon, and berries — to the mixture. These fruits will infuse the juice with a beautiful, layered flavor.

3. If you like a little sweetness, stir in honey or sugar syrup until dissolved.

4. Cover the jug and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 1–2 hours. This allows the fruits to release their natural juices and deepen the flavor.

5. When ready to serve, add ice cubes to glasses, pour in the chilled sangria, and top with sparkling water for a refreshing fizz.

6. Garnish with a mint leaf and a slice of orange for a perfect finish.

Serving Suggestion:
Serve your Non-Alcoholic Sangria cold in a clear glass pitcher or wine glasses to highlight the colorful mix of fruits. It’s a perfect drink for celebrations, parties, or any time you want something elegant and refreshing without alcohol.

Optional Variations:

• Add pomegranate seeds for a pop of color and texture.

• Replace grape juice with cranberry or apple juice for a lighter version.

• For a tropical twist, include pineapple chunks and a splash of mango juice.
