White sangria is a crisp and refreshing wine-based cocktail you can enjoy year-round. This drink is often prepared ahead of time in a large batch so the fruit can absorb some of the alcohol flavor and in turn provide flavor to the cocktail. The longer the sangria sits in the refrigerator before serving, the more flavorful it becomes.
