- *for the blood orange syrup*
- 1 blood orange sliced thinly
- ½ cup water
- ½ cup granulated white sugar
- *for the sangria*
- 1 bottle dry rosè wine
- ¼ cup blood orange syrup see above
- 1 blood orange sliced
- ½ cup sliced strawberries
- ¼ cup fresh raspberries
First, make the blood orange syrup. Combine the water and sugar in a shallow pan, and heat over medium until sugar has melted.
Add in the orange slices in a single layer and bring syrup to a gentle simmer. Cook, flipping slices occasionally, for about 30 minutes. Syrup should turn pink and orange slices will appear caramelized and see-through.
Remove orange slices from the syrup and place on a wire rack to cool. You can eat these by themselves or use them as garnish for your cups!
Let syrup come to room temperature before pouring into a jar. Syrup will store for a few weeks in the fridge.
To make the sangria, pour the rosè into the Grosche pitcher. Add in the orange syrup and mix well using a long spoon. Add in the fresh orange slices, strawberries, and raspberries. Let mixture sit for at least 30 minutes.
Serve cold with candied oranges for garnish.
