Yield Makes about 2 1/2 quarts.

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 limes, sliced thin
2 small carambolas (star fruit, available at specialty produce markets), sliced thin crosswise
1 chilled 750-ml. bottle dry white wine
1 chilled 12-ounce can mango nectar
1 mango, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 chilled 12-ounce can ginger ale
1 chilled 750-ml. bottle champagne

Steps:

  • Reserve some of the lime and carambola slices for garnish. In a large pitcher stir together the white wine, the mango nectar, the mango, and the remaining lime and carambola slices. The sangrĂ­a may be prepared up to this point 1 day in advance and kept covered and chilled. Just before serving, stir in the ginger ale, the champagne, and ice cubes and serve the sangrĂ­a garnished with the reserved lime and carambola slices.
