Calories: 230

Ingredients:

  • 4 cups watermelon juice, from one small watermelon

  • 1 pound fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

  • 1 bottle Rose wine, not too sweet is best

  • 1 cup vodka

  • 1 cup limoncello or Cointreau

  • juice of 2 oranges

  • juice of 1 lime

  • 1 orange sliced

  • 1 lime sliced

Directions:

  1. Slice a watermelon into large chunks.  Reserve a few smaller chunks for the sangria jar and for garnish.  

  2. Using a blender, blend watermelon chunks with a handful of sliced strawberries until smooth. Depending on the size of your blender, you may need to blend the fruit in two batches.  

  3. Strain fruit juice through a fine mesh strainer and into a large measuring cup.  You’ll need about 4 cups of watermelon/strawberry juice.

  4. In a large container stir together watermelon/strawberry juice, wine, vodka, limoncello/Cointreau, orange juice, and lime juice.  Stir in the remaining sliced strawberries, a few watermelon chunks, sliced oranges, and sliced lime.  

  5. Chill thoroughly before serving.  Serve over ice.
