Elevate summer sipping with the exquisite flavours of Rosé Cherry Elderflower Sangria.
This cocktail combines sweet, tart and floral notes elevating your sangria experience.
This refreshing rose-coloured sangria balances the delicate floral notes of elderflower liqueur and the sweet tartness of ripe summer cherries. The combination of flavours goes well with light appetizers as it does with a summery main course. Turn it up a notch by adding a splash of brandy or Grand Marnier or topping with Prosecco instead of club soda.
The best rose for sangria is on that is light, crisp and dry. Avoid overly sweet wines as they can overpower the delicate flavours of the sangria. Swap strawberries for cherries and enjoy all year round.
