Alcohol-free sangria
Sweet without sugar, healthy without compromise and suitable for any occasion. The look is festive and joyful with colors – a real table decoration!
This cocktail is so versatile that it’s hard to think of an occasion it wouldn’t suit: at parties it becomes an elegant alternative to alcohol, at family gatherings it is enjoyed by both adults and children, and even more so by the little ones – because of its colorfulness and abundance of fruit. And sometimes you can just make it for yourself – when you want to treat yourself to something special after a long day or create a small celebration.
Not only does the hibiscus tea add a rich color to the drink, it also acts as a powerful antiviral and antibacterial agent. Coconut water adds natural sweetness, helps restore the body’s fluid balance, and replenishes minerals.
Try it, taste it – and you’ll see how easy it is to create a celebration in a healthy way.
