Most sangrias are far too sweet for my palate, but this recipe is the perfect balance of fresh citrus, crisp wine, and a mellow hint of ginger at the end. The spiced rum and ginger syrup complement each other perfectly, making this a true crowd-pleaser for any party.

Start by making a ginger syrup. Pour the water into a small saucepan over medium-low heat.
Whisk in the sugar until dissolved.
Peel and rough chop the ginger, add it to the saucepan, and allow to simmer for 15 minutes.
Pour the mixture into a blender and pulse to further incorporate the ginger.
Allow to sit for 5-10 minutes, then strain the solids from the syrup.
To make the sangria, combine the wine, rum, 6 ounces of the ginger syrup, and citrus juices in a large pitcher. Add ice and stir to combine.
Garnish with fresh mint sprigs and orange slices, if desired.

Notes

Adding a small amount of sparkling water to a glass of this sangria makes it extra-refreshing and fun!
