Notes
- Moscato is naturally really sweet, so this recipe does not call for any extra sugar. If you love your sangria super sweet, you can always add 1/4 cup of simple syrup.
- I love how the dark rum mellows out the sweetness of the Moscato, but you can absolutely use light rum if you prefer.
- There’s nothing like a refreshing sangria, so I had to make a collection of my best sangria recipes!
