Ingredients

  • 14 oz 400 grams fresh strawberries (about 2 and 1/2 cup when chopped)
  • 1 orange
  • 1 lime
  • 1/4 cup sugar or to taste
  • 2 mint sprigs
  • 1 bottle 750ml or 26 oz Prosecco, chilled
  • 2 fl oz 1/4 cup Cointreau or orange liqueur (optional)
  • ice optional to serve

Instructions

  • Hull the strawberries and chop them. Slice the oranges and the limes, and then cut the orange into slices into quarters and the lime slices into halves.
  • Add the chopped strawberries, lime, orange, mint, and sugar to a mixing bowl or a large pitcher.
  • Lightly mix the fruit and sugar, cover with some plastic wrap/cling film, and place the bowl or pitcher in the fridge for about an hour (to let the sugar dissolve and the fruit release its juices). This is a good time to place your bottle of Prosecco in the fridge to chill.
  • Transfer the fruit (and all the juice) to a large pitcher (if you used a mixing bowl for the fruit).
  • (Optional) Add 2 fl oz (or 1/4 cup) of Cointreau (or orange liqueur) to the fruit and mix well.
  • Slowly pour the bottle of Prosecco over the fruit. You want to pour as slowly as you can to preserve the bubbles.
  • Mix the fruit and Prosecco (very lightly so as not to lose more of the bubbles).
  • Bring both the pitcher and some wine glasses or champagne glasses to the table, and make sure everyone gets some fruit with their sparkling sangria. Optionally, serve with some ice.
