This festive red, white and blue sangria is the perfect addition to your July 4th BBQ. It's easy to make, perfect for making ahead, and so tasty!

If you're hosting, or attending, a Fourth of July celebration, we bet berry sangria will be a welcome addition to the spread. And hosts, this first part is for you: this red, white and blue sangria can be made ahead, and even tastes better the next day!

We make a version of this sangria when we have company throughout the year. We just swap out summer berries for whatever fruit happens to be in season.

It's a great way to serve something a little more exciting than wine and beer without having to craft cocktails while your guests are over.

This particular sangria recipe is ideal for Independence Day not only because of its color palette. This drink makes excellent use of the season's sweetest products: fresh berries.

We can't get enough strawberries, raspberries and blueberries all summer long. We're already eating them for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks, why not throw them into a festive berry cocktail?

Aside from the star-shaped apple slices (which are totally optional but highly encouraged, by the way), we went a little outside the box for this sangria recipe.

First, a bit of tart cherry juice adds extra antioxidants and a delicious deep cherry flavor. To balance the tartness from the cherries, we also use Chambord, a raspberry liqueur.

And finally, for the fizzy finish, a bottle of berry kombucha. Feel free to skip the kombucha or substitute it with sparkling wine or even Champagne for an extra boozy hit.

Not only does this red, white and blue Sangria come together in just a few minutes the day before, it's also perfect to make in a large batch.

We love serving cocktails in pitchers for friends, but not every cocktail lasts as well as this sangria. The fruit holds up nicely and the drink will stay well-mixed throughout your party.

Thanks to the cute floating berries and apple slices, this recipe is even more eye-catching as a centerpiece in a large glass pitcher!

At the end of the day, however, even the largest batches of berry sangria won't last forever. Make sure to fill up your cup early and often and enjoy your Fourth of July!
