Sangria is a drink from Spain and Portugal, traditionally made with red wine, brandy and fruit. Ree makes her own version using rosé wine and coconut-flavored rum. She blends in ice for a ‘slushy’ consistency.

Ingredients
- 1/2 cup blueberries
- 1/2 cup raspberries
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- One 750-milliliter bottle rosé wine
- 2 1/2 cups strawberries
- 3/4 cup coconut-flavored rum
- 1/4 cup superfine sugar
- Fresh mint sprigs, for garnish
Instructions
- The day before, add the blueberries, raspberries, orange juice, 1 cup of the wine, 1 cup of the strawberries and 1/4 cup of the rum to a medium bowl. Cover and refrigerate for 24 hours to marinate. Transfer the remaining 1 1/2 cups strawberries to a freezer-safe storage bag and place in the freezer for 24 hours.
- Reserve 1/2 cup of the mixed berries for garnish. Add the remaining mixed berries and all the liquid to a blender, top with the sugar, 4 cups ice, the frozen strawberries and remaining wine and rum and blend until smooth (or do in batches if necessary). Serve immediately with a spoonful of the reserved boozy fruit and a sprig of mint.
