Let me just start out by saying that this camping sangria goes down a little too easily! 😉

Sangria is for sharing!

I highly recommend making lots of friends around the campsite and sharing this tasty little beverage. Especially if you plan to eat any of the fruit, a cup or two will be plenty. Trust me.

This is camping sangria. Meaning it's specifically designed to travel, making it the perfect make-ahead cocktail to take camping.

So, you'll need a few things to make this portable and suitable for camping:

Watch how easy it is to make :

Have sangria, will travel.

The key here is the method of concocting and also storing this campsite-friendly beverage. So, once you gather everything you need to make this, you're half way to making your first batch of camping sangria. 🙂

I first made this sangria on the fly before a camping trip and just used random fruit and soda I had on hand. What I had, happened to be grapes, peaches and strawberries. A little bit random. But it wasn't bad!

What fruits work best in this sangria?

Truly, any combination of fruits can work in a sangria. You can get as creative as you want when you pick your fruits. I made another batch and tried to pick more tropical fruits in order to give it that vacationy-vibe! So choose your favorite fruit combo.

What mixer is best?

You can also choose your favorite carbonated or non-carbonated beverage. I've tried Fresca, ginger ale, cranberry juice, and Sprite. Any carbonated or non carbonated juice works as a mixer.

Give this sangria a punch of flavor!

Adding just a little bit of lemon juice or lime juice, makes the fruits in this sangria "pop" and gives the drink a really delicious but slightly more tart flavor. Add if you want — totally optional!

What type of vodka works best?

You can also try flavored vodka. That's another way to customize the taste of this sangria. The possibilities are endless!

Make this sangria your own!

This sangria is so versatile.

Every time you go camping, have fun and mix up a new flavor combo to share! It's a sure way to meet fried around the camp site, I'll tell you that, ha!

Feel free to share any variations you've tried in the comments below.

Variations of this sangria I've tried

Camping Sangria - Mighty Mrs | Super Easy Recipes (1)Check out this Mason jar with pour lid

A company right here in my town of Erie, PA invented these awesome mason jar pour caps.

These mason jar caps are great for this particular recipe because it allows you to mix up and store your sangria concentrate. Then you can repurpose the mason jar as a drinking glass with a lid once you mix the sangria in your pitcher!

The lid keeps out bugs and prevent spills (party foul!). You can buy the mason jar pour caps on Amazon.
