Red Berry Sangria is the perfect refreshing cocktail recipe to make and sip this Spring! The combination of fruity berry flavor with white wine and vodka is perfect!
I have a serious obsession with sangria recipes because they’re so simple. I just can’t get enough, and I’m excited now to share this delicious Red Berry Sangria! It’s fruity and flavorful and so perfectly sweet.
Why You’ll Love this Berry Sangria
- Berries – Obviously you’ll get a delicious berry-filled flavor with this sangria. Berry juice, berry vodka, and fresh berries too!
- Easy & Quick – This is such an easy recipe, that just requires mixing the ingredients and refrigerating. Simple!
- White Wine – We’re using white wine for this sangria recipe which adds a nice sweet flavor to make it extra refreshing. Perfect for summer!
What wine should I use?
This “red” berry sangria has a secret…it’s made with white wine! I love the sweetness Moscato brings to the table, and it’s so delicious in this cocktail. I’ve always loved white wine more than red for sipping, so this drink is right up my alley. The bright fruit flavors mixed with the Moscato make this a little glass of perfection.
You can use any Moscato you prefer (yes, even pink Moscato if you like).
Sangria with Vodka
The other secret ingredient (and probably the most important) is Pearl Red Berry Vodka. I’m sure most people have tried Raspberry Vodka, but this is slightly different. It has a super bright flavor, just like fresh raspberries. However, you can use any berry-flavored vodka. You can also use a “plain” vodka if that’s all you have; there’s still lots of berry flavor from the other ingredients!
Berry Sangria Recipe Tips
- I like using Naked Berry Blast OR V8 Splash Berry Blend because they are really flavorful and have a great consistency. You can substitute for another type of juice if you prefer.
- The lemon lime soda adds a beautiful citrus twist and a nice bubbly texture. You could also use club soda, but I like the citrus flavor.
- Adding the soda just before serving keeps it fizzy (otherwise it will get flat sitting in the fridge for 2 hours).
- To serve, pour over ice and garnish with fresh berries.
Pairing Suggestions
Nothing pairs with a cocktail quite like an appetizer! You could go with something sweet and light (like fruit) to complement the drink, or serve with something really snackable (like chips and dip, of course!). I recommend serving this berry sangria with this Port Wine Cheese Log, Strawberry Salsa, or this Food Processor Guacamole.
This berry sangria is a fresh and fruit favorite! I can’t wait for you to try it.

Hello, It seems that Pearl no longer makes the berry vodka. Would you suggest another type or flavor?
Any other brand of Red Berry flavored vodka will work!
It is one small bottle of moscato right?
Wish I had one of these sangria’s in hand right now! They look so refreshing and delicious.
Thank you Thalia!!
The Sangria’s look so delicious! I’m anxiously waiting for spring to get here in Canada.
Not sure I’ll wait that long to sample this recipe. Pinned!
Thanks Diana! I bet Canada is so beautiful right now though!
We find it beautiful for the first 2 months, the following 4 months we spend wishing for warmer weather. :)
I swear you could photograph dirt and I’d want to eat it! Obviously these glasses of sangria look insanely delicious – can’t wait to try it. Pinned!
Ha you are so sweet…DITTO!!!
I love the sound of this vodka, I hadn’t seen this brand before. Also, I happen to love white wine sangrias – they’re my favorite, I think the simple fact that it’s Friday calls for a big pitcher of this beautiful concoction!
It’s SO good! Thanks so much Heather :)
I love sangria! I’d totally make this right now if I didn’t drink all my Moscato last night… oops :)
Always a good reason :) haha
I haven’t had a real drink in forever, just a few sips of beer here and there. I used to love Sangria, and this looks divine, but it would probably knock me under the table. LOLOL.
Thanks for stopping by Marsha!! haha you could make yours extra heavy on the juice :)
Sangria is such an amazing drink. It always reminds me of the summer of maybe I’ll need to make some of this and dream the snow and cold away ;)
I’m with you Shelby! Thanks for stopping by :)
Becky, what a beautiful drink and AMAZING photos. I pictured myself drinking this in the warm summer sun. I can’t wait until I can make myself a big pitcher of this!
Thank you so much Sara!!
