No Added Sugar Sangria Mocktail

This sangria mocktail is a refreshing drink that highlights the fruity flavors of traditional sangria without added sugars or alcohol. Fruit adds plenty of natural sweetness that’s bolstered by a combination of pomegranate and orange juice. Berry-flavored seltzer adds to the fruity taste, but plain seltzer will work well too.

Ingredients

  • 1 orange, scrubbed, halved and sliced ¼-inch thick
  • 1 small gala apple, halved, cored and sliced ¼-inch thick
  • 1 large lemon, scrubbed and sliced ¼-inch thick
  • 4 (4-inch) fresh rosemary sprigs, plus more for garnish
  • 3½ cups refrigerated 100% pomegranate juice
  • ½ cup orange juice
  • 2 (12-ounce) cans berry-flavored seltzer
  • ice, for serving

Directions

  1. Remove any seeds from fruit slices, if necessary. Combine orange slices, apple slices, lemon slices and 4 rosemary sprigs in a large pitcher; gently muddle with a wooden spoon until the fruit releases juice, about 30 seconds. Stir in 3½ cups pomegranate juice and ½ cup orange juice. Refrigerate, uncovered, for at least 1 hour and up to 12 hours.
  2. Just before serving, stir in 2 (12-ounce) cans seltzer. Serve in ice-filled glasses. Garnish with additional rosemary sprigs, if desired.
