Sangria


Sangria is a wonderful drink for the holiday season.  It has lots of fruit and is very festive tasting.  It can be made so many ways so I will give you some ideas.


Sangria


This makes about 2 quarts so if you need to make more just add more ingredients as needed.  I start with some juice and fruit.  I will put a cup of pineapple, orange or cranberry juice.  I then add a bunch of fresh and frozen fruit. Blueberries, strawberries, grapes, oranges, lemons and pineapple are a few.  If you want you can add a little sugar to sweeten it up I will blend all above ingredients in a blender.



Add a bottle of wine.  Sweet red or white are usually best.  1 cup of tropical rum or vodka (more if my day involves relatives) will give it some flavor.  I will sometimes add some sprite or 7up to give it some fizz.  You can add more or less of all the above ingredients to suit your taste.  This can be made with sugar free items as well.  Remember to sample often while preparing so you know it is sweet enough. 


Enjoy
