Beautiful and delicious summertime sangria made super simple with frozen raspberry lemonade drink mix, wine, and vodka!
Sangria! Or what I like to refer to it as: Summer in a glass.
If this is summer in a glass… then my apple pie sangria is fall in a glass. And this sangria is the perfect embodiment of summer in a glass.
There is nothing better than a tall glass of lemonade on a hot summer day… except when said lemonade is made with wine and vodka. Then it’s even better!
Yeah. Just be careful though. This sangria tastes just like raspberry lemonade and goes down just as quick.
I poured a glass to drink while mowing the lawn the other day and started chugging because I was thirsty. Whoops. Realized what I was doing then slowed down and grabbed water instead. I should have just poured water to begin with but when I went inside the jug of sangria was just screaming at me to drink it sitting there all pretty in the fridge.
Haha… Drinking and mowing the lawn don’t mix. I’ll stick to laying out on the porch and reading a book next time. Or enjoying under the umbrella while the kiddos run amuck in the backyard.
I also, as you can see, got over my irrational fear of making sangria and royally screwing it up. Both times I’ve made sangria so far have turned out epic and therefore I will continue to bring you more yummy sangria recipes. It might just be my new “signature” thing to do.
Plus, sangria is just super easy and fun to make and just about everyone really likes sangria. It’s also super customizable because you can make it to your taste – sweet, dry, sparkling, flat, whatever you want. You can’t go wrong.
This is also probably one of the easiest sangria recipes that I made and takes about 1.2 seconds to come together. Not really, maybe more like 4-5 minutes but you get the point.

What a wonderful sounding summer drink, I have to disagree about not mixing mowing the lawn with drinking though 😉
Hahaha! I tend to agree… I just didn’t want to cut off any appendages cuz ya know, I might use them again 😉
Oooh this is calling my name right about now. The weather has been perfect for one of these.. gotta make soon!
My kind of cocktail! Quick to make and easy to drink down. That said, so jealous of you mowing your lawn. Is that crazy? I miss having a yard!! Ugh, NYC!
Haha! I am totally OVER mowing my lawn now. The hubby is too and we’re currently looking to get a riding mower… we have a huge lawn. It’ll be much faster and maybe I won’t dread doing it every week.
Has anyone tried this with regular lemonade concentrate? I can never find raspberry flavored.
I have not tried it with regular lemonade concentrate, but I’m sure it would be fine. Or you could use strawberry.
I bought the pink lemonade concentrate because it was all I could find in 2 stores and substituted some with raspberry lemonade juice…turned out to be verryy good!
You can use raspberry vodka as well.
I was actually considering making this with raspberry vodka. Came to the comments to see if anyone had tried it.
Hi ladies just wondering if anyone know what the raspberry lemonade concentrate is called here in Australia as I’ve never heard of it would it be cordial ?
