Today I'm celebrating National Moscato Day with my #SundaySupper Family and Gallo Family Vineyards.

I couldn't think of a better way to enjoy the celebration then sharing my recipe for Sparkling Strawberry Grapefruit Moscato Punch. Colt and I have made different variations of this punch over the years and it's always been a hit! 

We love to use Moscato Wine in punch for it's sweet flavor, limiting the need for much additional sugar and it's wonderful complementation to the strawberries and grapefruit.

On this particular occasion I chose to use Gallo Family Vineyards Red Moscato for it gorgeous ruby red color along with delicious notes of berries and citrus. I find the Red Moscato to be perfectly sweet but not too sweet to sip alone. It helps give the punch it's deliciously dark fuchsia color.

I added Pink Moscato Champagne to tingle the tongue a little, strawberries, raspberries, and freshly squeezed grapefruit juice to compliment the Red Moscato.

A refreshing cocktail full of flavor perfect for Mother's Day, Barbecues and Holidays! 

I know you will enjoy sipping Sparkling Strawberry Grapefruit Moscato Punch as much as we do.

First you'll need to gather your ingredients: 2 cups Strawberries with stems removed, 1 cup Raspberries or additional Strawberries, 1 3/4 cup Fresh Squeezed Pink Grapefruit Juice with Pulp Removed, 2 tablespoons Sugar, 750ml Chilled Gallo Family Vineyards Red Moscato or Pink Moscato for a lighter cocktail, 2 cups Chilled Pink Moscato Champagne and Ice.

In a blender add Strawberries, Raspberries, Grapefruit Juice and Sugar. Puree until mixture is completely smooth.

Check out that gorgeous red color! If that doesn't scream summer I don't know what does! Add berry mixture to a large pitcher or punch bowl.

Slowly pour in Gallo Family Red Moscato and Pink Moscato Champagne. Stir until well combined and add 2-3 cups Ice.

Taste Punch and add additional sugar as needed. How much sugar is needed will depend on how ripe the berries are.

To garnish glasses slice a strawberry half way up the middle and place on side of glass. Using a peeler remove about a 3"x 1/8" long strip of grapefruit peel and twist around a dowel to to form a curl and place over side of glass.

Add additional Ice to glass if needed and sip to enjoy! 

We love this punch for any occasion where we have company over and need a show stopping drink. Not only is the color gorgeous but the flavor is delicious with an amazing depth! I know this will quickly become a favorite punch for your next gathering! 

It's light and refreshing enough to sip on a hot summers day while enjoying the sunshine on the patio with a few of your closest friends! Whether you're sipping with friends, having a barbecue or a celebratory gathering this punch is sure to be a hit!
