Aldi’s New Sangria Kits Will Make Summer Cocktails *That* Much Easier to Assemble

aldi sangria kits

If you're not spending your summer sipping rosé…well, maybe it's because you're more of a sangria person. Good news, then: Your go-to grocery story just made your summer beverage dreams a little more effortless. Aldi is launching sangria kits just in time for hot summer nights.

On June 12, keep your eyes peeled for the arrival of both white and red Season's Choice Sangria Blends at Aldi, which are basically specially blended bags of frozen fruit intended for red or white wine sangria.

What's inside? The white sangria blend includes a mix of oranges, strawberries, pineapple and apples, while the red blend has oranges, dark sweet cherries, tart cherries and blackberries. If you're like, I can mix frozen fruit on my own, we see a couple ways these blends are useful. For starters, who has the space in their refrigerator for all that fruit? (Ours is too full with half-wilted kale intended for meal prep.) And second, the fruit is pre-cut. We'll just leave that there.

There's one caveat, though. The actual wine isn't include with these sangria kits, so you'll have to fend for yourself finding booze (aka heading a few aisles over to Aldi's wine department). Might we suggest a garnacha for the red and a dry Riesling for the white? You could also just use the frozen fruit blends for smoothies if that's more your speed (or frosé, hint, hint).

The sangria blends will retail for $3.49 a piece. Time to make some space in your freezer.
