Sangria Margarita
Fruity sangria and crisp margaritas come together in this easy Sangria margarita. Why choose one drink when you make two at once with this easy recipe?
I love frozen drinks like daiquiris, wine slushies, and bellinis in the summer. Lately, I've been loving sangria, especially my white wine peach sangria, and this red wine Sangria Margarita is my new favorite. It is basically a slushie for adults! We love sipping it while relaxing on the porch or as a reward for finishing yard work. It is also perfect for Cinco de Mayo or girls' night in. Hello, best book club meeting ever! You’ll love the citrusy margarita combined with fruity red wine. It is SO refreshing.
Whether you’re hosting a pool party or backyard BBQ, having this boozy slushy to serve your adult guests will make the event fun AND festive.
Ingredient Notes
- Wine: Any dry red wine that you enjoy drinking will do. I used a Spanish Rioja that cost ~10 bucks. It is just sweet enough but still able to stand up to the other flavors in this drink. Other good options would be a Merlot or Pinot Noir.
- Triple Sec: I like Jacquin's or Cointreau. It also goes great in my watermelon margaritas.
- Limeade: Look for this in your grocery store's freezer aisle near the frozen orange juice.
- Tequila: I suggest using a Silver tequila you enjoy drinking. I like Patron, Jose Cuervo, and Casamigos best. Use Leftovers In: Tequila Sunrises , Marijuana Cocktails ,or Corona Sunrises.
Krystle's Tips
- Prep Work: Make the sangria part a few hours in advance and blend up the margarita part as needed. Keep chilled.
- Make this drink nonalcoholic by subbing the red wine for grape juice, and leaving out the tequila/triple sec.
- Juice correctly: Get the most juice out of your limes and oranges by rolling them on the counter, or microwaving for a few seconds before juicing.
- Clean As You Go: Don't skip washing out the blender, or your drink won't have 2 distinctive colors.
- Salty or Sweet: If you're not a fan, use sugar instead for a sweet twist. Run a lime wedge over the rim to make sure it sticks.

Such a pretty margarita! And it sounds delicious. Great one to try next time we have guests over.
Oh now I could just drink this right now! It has been the hottest day of the year here so far and I could just do with this tasty cocktail.
That looks like a fun way to serve sangria! I'll have to share this with my DiL, she's mentioned liking them before.
It sounds like an amazing drink, and it would be a great addition for your annual pool party. Which I will be keeping in mind as well.
Thanks for sharing, it's going straight into my summer drink rotation. I can already picture sipping this on the porch while watching the sunset or enjoying a girls' night in.
I don’t drink often but love this! Sangria & margaritas are my two favorite mixed drinks and them combined just sounds like heaven.
This drink sounds amazing. I will have to make it one day for sure.

Thanks Mary! The red is just the sangria swirl.
