Kaitlyn Bristowe Shares Watermelon Sangria Recipe Perfect For Summertime

Kaitlyn Bristowe is changing the game and breaking barriers in the industry as she founded her very own wine company -- Spades and Sparrows.

When speaking to Spades and Sparrows, Bristowe explained, “After learning so much about wine through the restaurant industry, I came to realize that wine wasn’t being marketed to me (a female, millennial consumer) and instead was being marketed to men. There was a common slogan in the wine industry that said, ‘market to men, and women will follow’. This was totally absurd to me.”

Bristowe went on to explain why her wine company is different than others. “For a long time, wine has been associated with exclusivity and snobby-ness. We have removed that aspect entirely from our brand,” she said before adding, “I was so bored of seeing images of wine on a perfectly curated dinner table, it’s beautiful to look at and certainly aspirational, but it’s not the reality for many of us women.”

The former "Bachelor" and "Bachelorette" star recently used her wine as a base for the perfect summer sangria, and fans are absolutely loving it.

Bristowe recently shared a video of herself making watermelon sangria, using Spades and Sparrows wine as the base, which has gained the attention of her Instagram followers.

In the video, the former "Bachelor" star is seen preparing the watermelon sangria, all while making hilarious faces, before she then sips the wine from her bottle waiting for the sangria to chill in the fridge.

"Weekend porch pounder recipe ? Spade & Sparrows Watermelon Sangria," she captioned the post before sharing the recipe for the sangria, which is as follows.

• 2 1/2 Cups of Watermelon

Fans did not hesitate to take to the comments section to share their excitement for the new recipe Bristowe shared. "Omg stop that looks so good and I have a watermelon at my house rn," one fan wrote as another chimed in, "Gonna put it on the menu @marblkingwest and call it the Bristowe Bomb ?."

A third commented, "THIS WILL BE MADE TONIGHT," as another wrote, "Looks delish!!!! (And the wine’s not bad either waca waca?)."

Meanwhile one of her fans commented, "Making this now!! ???."

"This looks delicious," another chimed in.

Some of her fans hope Bristowe shares more recipes in the future as one user commented, "Yummm! Yes more recipes plz!."

Others made fun of Bristowe for using a vegetable strainer to strain the watermelon juice as they hilariously commented things such as "But why are we using a vegetable steamer as a strainer" and "Someone get this woman a proper strainer/sifter…if you want the pulp and the seeds, I totally understand then. Disregard. ?❤️."

Bristowe responded to the comments making fun of her using a vegetable strainer by saying, "Let me tell you the broccoli steamer worked like a charm to strain the juice."
