Ingredients
  

  • 12 ounces Pineapple juice Choose 100% juice for the best flavor.
  • 1 bottle White grape juice (Moscato recommended) Sweet white wine enhances the drink's taste.
  • 8 ounces Coconut vanilla extract (alcohol-free) (Malibu recommended) Adds a tropical touch without the alcohol.
  • 12 ounces Chopped pineapple canned Canned pineapple is convenient and flavorful.
  • 4 ounces Maraschino cherries including a little bit of juice The cherry juice adds color and sweetness.

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Fruit: Drain the pineapple chunks to collect the juice. Set the chopped pineapple aside. Measure out the maraschino cherries and include a bit of the juice for added flavor and color.
  2. Mix the Sangria: In a large pitcher or a sangria dispenser, combine the pineapple juice, white grape juice, and coconut vanilla extract (alcohol-free). Stir gently to mix the liquids thoroughly.
  3. Add Fruits: Add the chopped pineapple and maraschino cherries into the pitcher. Stir gently to distribute the fruits evenly throughout the mixture.
  4. Chill: Refrigerate the sangria for at least 4 hours, ideally overnight. This allows the flavors to meld together beautifully while chilling thoroughly.
  5. Serve: Serve the sangria chilled using a ladle to ensure each glass gets a good mix of fruit and liquid. Optionally, garnish with additional pineapple slices or cherry on a skewer for a festive touch.
  6. Enjoy: Enjoy this tropical twist on sangria with friends and family at your next summer party!
