STRAWBERRY AND PEACH ROSÉ SANGRIA

A few years back, one of my besties introduced me to Rosé. I was hooked instantly. What’s not to love about drinking pink wine?! It’s a necessity for any summer soiree. Plus it makes you feel super fab when you sip something pink like this Rosé Sangria.

I’ve been on a bit of a sangria kick lately. I think it’s because there is such an abundance of insanely delicious fruit at the markets right now, I feel compelled to throw all of it into my drink.

I’ve made sangria a time or two on the blog before, and each one of them is as fantastic as the next. This Strawberry and Peach Rosé Sangria happens to be my current fav for many reasons.

1- Rosé, I’m obsessed. 2- Basil. Basil in cocktails is totally my jam. 3- Peaches. I literally cannot get enough.
