The  Pineapple Sangria recipe is our new favorite summertime pitcher of fun. As with most Sangria recipes it is very easy to make and is both tasty and refreshing. The brain trust ( yes we do know the humor of that term ) at Buffet Beach had a little back and forth on this one about the sweetness of the recipe, so taste it before you start adding the simple syrup.

Pineapple Sangria recipe

1  bottle of Prosecco

1 1/2 cups pineapple juice

1/2 cup white rum       as always, we recommend  Plantation 3 Star

1/4 cup simple syrup    see above

one whole fresh pineapple cubed

one fresh lime and one fresh lemon thinly sliced

maraschino cherries for garnish

If you haven’t  SANGRIA before, you may just be surprised how easy it is and how much your friend’s eyes will brighten when they see your pitcher full of alcohol and fresh fruit….. not to mention full of a heck of a lot of fun.
