This refreshing Rosé Sangria is made with pineapple juice and fresh fruit. It’s zippy, mild, and sweet, so it’s the perfect big-batch cocktail recipe for entertaining guests! Plus, it’s refined sugar-free and totally delicious, meaning you can enjoy a pitcher guilt-free!
When the molten depths of our earth’s core flip inside out, I always pull out my glorious Pineapple Rosé Sangria.
It’s the perfect cure for any heat-raged crazy that rears its head when it’s viciously hot. And that’s because it’s just SO refreshing.
This boozy beverage is light, fruity, and 100% naturally sweetened (so, it’s technically a skinny sangria!).
The tropical twist of pineapple juice meshes super well with the crisp rosé, and I promise it’ll tickle your taste buds.
And I just love how the fresh berries and juicy pineapple chunks soak up the alcohol. That’s right, the treats keep coming even after you’ve had your last sip!
Easy to customize and ideal for brunches, summer BBQs, and even a night on the couch, it’s a must-try. Whip up a couple of Ginger Margaritas and Horchata Cocktails to round things off and you’ll have a party to remember!
Thank me later, y’all.
Ingredients for Pineapple Rosé Sangria
These are the ingredients you’ll need to make the perfect pineapple rosé sangria. They should all be pretty readily available from the grocery store, so don’t stress!
Rosé wine: This delicious wine forms the crispy, fruity, and totally delightful base of our rosé sangria. I recommend going for a dry or semi-sweet rosé. It just depends on how sweet you want the finished product to be!
Pineapple juice: Try to find 100% pineapple juice to bring a fresh brightness to your cocktail. It’ll bring all the natural sweetness you’re looking for without any refined ingredients. It also aids digestion (thanks, bromelain!) and is a natural anti-inflammatory. Oh, and did I mention it’s high in Vitamin C and B6?
Chopped pineapple: The juice is one part of the magic, but you’ll also want to bring in chopped fruit for texture! I love draining the cocktail and being left with slightly boozy fruit to snack on at the end.
Raspberries: Add a pop of color and a juicy, tart contrast that works so well against the pineapple. Plus, they soak up the rosé like a dream.
Blackberries: I find that blackberries bring just a little bit of earthiness along with more natural sweetness. So, they’re great for balancing and deepening each sip.
Recipe Customizations
- I love swapping rosé for white wine when I’m in the mood for a slightly more citrusy sangria. It sort of removes the rosé element of this recipe, but I’m all for giving you enough options to last the whole summer!
- Why not add a splash of mango or orange juice for a bit of tropical flair? A handful of blueberries or mango chunks can also be delicious add-ins.
- Want to turn it into a fiesta? A shot of tequila is all it takes (but proceed with caution as it might get too boozy!)
- If you love sweet cocktails, two tablespoons of maple syrup or sugar-free sweetener will do the trick.
Tips for the Best Pineapple Rose Sangria
- I absolutely refuse to serve sangria when it’s warm! So, I suggest letting it chill in the fridge before pouring it out. Letting it sit for at least an hour lets the fruit soak up the alcohol and all the flavors mingle!
- Keep your berries whole. You can technically mash your berries if you want a stronger flavor, but I find it looks a touch messy. However, if you’re in a rush, mashing the fruit can be a great way to release flavors quickly.
- During the height of summer, I suggest serving this over ice. It’ll keep the drink cold and refreshing. Plus, you’ll be drinking it quickly, I’m sure (so, don’t worry about the ice diluting the drink!).
- If you can, cover your rosé sangria while it’s in the fridge. This will stop it from taking on other odors in your fridge that might spoil the taste!
What Does It Taste Like?
This rosé sangria is the ultimate mix of light, fruity, and refreshing flavors.
The wine keeps the flavor crisp and pleasantly boozy (without being overwhelming!).
And I just love how the berries add a fresh tartness that contrasts the tropical sweetness of your fresh pineapple.
All in all, it’s bright, breezy, and oh-so-sippable. Bottoms up!
How to Make Pineapple Rose Sangria
This recipe literally couldn’t be easier to make.
You just need to add all the ingredients to a large pitcher and serve over ice! Pretty glasses are a bonus, so pull out your finest glassware!
If you have any leftovers, put them in a sealed pitcher or airtight container in the fridge. It’ll stay tasty for around 2 to 3 days, but I recommend tossing it after that point.
Can’t get enough of naturally sweetened cocktails that’ll take your next gathering to new heights? Well, I’ve got you covered with these delicious (and clean!) cocktails.

What size bottle of Rosé? Would love to try this!
Hi Ann!
I’m so happy to hear you’re interested in making the sangria! It’s one of my favorite summer cocktails! You’ll use a regular sized bottle of Rose – 750 ml. Let me know if you have any other questions! xo
Oh I am all over this sexy little sangria! LOVE it!
I would love 78 degree heat, we get to the mid 90’s with 120% humidity! Having said that we also just got new A/C, it’s so lovely.
This really is a refreshing looking drink, love the berries and the pink color is so pretty!
Gorgeous! This really is such a pretty drink. Sounds delicious!
OMGosh, this is the prettiest drink ever! What a delightfully delish way to use up summer berries.
We spent the day in 100 degree heat. I wanted to die. The highlight was checking out this recipe. Who needs water to hydrate when there is delicious sangria that will cure all aches and pains!
WAIT. HOLD THE FRIGGEDY-DIGGEDY PHONE. Pineapple juice does all of that?! Ok, I know what I am searching for tomorrow at the grocery and that ain’t no tall tale. You know this stomach of mine needs all the help it can get and if it’s delicious to boot? Yes puhleeze.
If I was visiting you, we could sit inside and sweat and bitch about the heat and watch Grey’s and DH and cry and laugh and drink gallons of this sangria. Amen.
You said it all, sister. Sweat, bitch, eat, vegetate. And yeah, it’s CRAZY how great pineapple juice is for you (there’s even more stuff that I didn’t list!) My boss is a health nut too, so she was the one who told me how great the stuff is. Whoodda thunk it??
Oh my gosh, if I drank I would so be drinking this! It is gorgeous and pineapple juice! YES!
Oh my goodness gracious. You don’t even know how badly I want this right now! The heat is doing crazy things to me too. I wish I could grab a glass through my screen!
Oh Lawd, I am the WORST when the heat gets cray. Just give me the AC and a personal fan and a big ol’ glass of this sangria and I’ll be happy as a clam. 🙂
Oh Lawd, I am the WORST when the heat gets cray. Just give me the AC and a personal fan and a big ol’ glass of this sangria and I’ll be a happy gal all summer long. 🙂
Oh I pour me one too, it’s 90’s here with the humidity it’s well into the 100s, ugh! Some days I adore it and days like today when the A/C breaks down not so much. But seriously…i love pineapple juice drinks, this sounds delish!
This looks delicious Julia! And at least one good thing has come out of your heat wave – this recipe! Try to stay cool and have a great 4th holiday!
I’m no good in heat. I get mean and irritable. My hair does crazy things and my nose and upper lip sweats. It’s not a good look. If I have to sit out in the heat, then this sangria is an absolute must. Matter of fact, you’d have to bribe me with one of these in order to get me to go out in the heat and humidity; otherwise, it’s not happening.
Same over here, sister. And my hair is bound to look like crap until it stops being muggy outside and I stop sweating all over it. This will not be a pretty summer…but that’s okay because I’ll have my sangria goggles on 😉
Ha! Love the line, “our glasses are sweating too.” Seriously, it is wayyyyyy to hot. Even in Denver, I’m sweating buckets. Thank goodness for pineapple juice and alcohol! This drink looks so refreshing.
I think it gets even hotter in Denver than here in the foothills…the last time I visited my friend in Denver, I swear I didn’t move the entire time I was there…just sat on the couch and melted. Sending you a bucket of ice cubes and some sangria, my friend!!
I usually hold out on turning on the AC until it gets upper 90s, but my poor super fluffy kitties looked miserable and sweaty, so I had to do it for my babies. I looooove sangria (and wine in general) but I dont think I’ve ever tried Rose. I have to give this a try!
