White wine sangria sparklers

Memorial Day is right around the corner and it starts my summer festivities.

I thought these Red, White, and Blue Sangria Sparklers would be perfect way to kick off for the holiday.

They taste just as good as they look and are super easy to make.

This white wine sangria is not your "everyday white wine sangria."

It is made with a Riesling and Prosecco wine.

The Riesling gives it a sweet flavor and the Prosecco adds charming little bubbles.

The combination creates a light, refreshing drink perfect for the hot summer outdoor entertaining.

If you read my Low Carb Asparagus and Roast Beef Rollups recipe post, you know I love to shop at BJ's Whole Sale Club.

Memorial Day kicks off the summer back yard barbecues.

BJ's is the perfect spot to grab all the things you need for your summer time grilling to include my favorite hotdogs,

I love both, so I just alternate between the two.

OH!!! And they have Nathan's little cocktail franks. How cute are those?

BJ's also carries great marinades if you want to step up your grilling game just a bit.

(And they have great prices on grills if you are looking for one!)

They are also a great source for party trays to get your cook out started effortlessly along with all your favorites side snacks like cheese, hummus, dips, chips, and cookies....

Typically my food is the star of the show at my cookouts, but these Red, White, and Blue Sangria Sparklers take the spotlight.

You can find everything you need to make this at BJ's!

Ingredients

To make this white wine sangria, you will need the following ingredients:

• Riesling Wine
• Prosecco Wine 
• Sugar
• Strawberries
• Blueberries

Note: Normally, white wine sangria is made with sweet fruits like peaches, pineapple, and apples.

Because these are made for Memorial Day or July 4th, I thought it would be fun to use blueberries and strawberries to keep with the color theme.

Therefore, this sangria gets its sweetness from the sweet Riesling wine. The Prosecco balances the sweetness making it a perfect blend!

How to make it

Making this white wine sangria is TOO EASY! Follow these simple steps.

• Pour Riesling into a large pitcher or punch bowl.
• Add sugar and stir.
• Add strawberries and blueberries, stir, cover, and refrigerate for 30 minutes or more.
• In a wine glass, pour half a glass of Prosecco.
• Top other half with Riesling making sure to include the blueberries and strawberries.
• Serve to your guests with scoops of  both of strawberries and blueberries in a clear glass or clear plastic cup for the full "red, white, and blue" effect. Cheers!

I mean seriously, can this white wine sangria get prettier or more festive?

They taste light, summery, slightly sweet, and refreshing.

They are the perfect compliment to any barbecue all summer long.
