KIWI BERRY SANGRIA

I know what you're probably thinking: 
"Sangria is a summer drink, Laura! It's winter! Time for spiked cocoa and hot cider!"
Well, I mean...you're right... but.. that doesn't mean those are the only drinks to be had! What's more festive for Christmas than a red and green drink?
Thus, I give to you:
 What you'll need to make it happen (serves 4):
- 2.5 ounces vodka
- 1 ounce triple sec
- 2 kiwi
- 1/2 cup raspberries
- 8-10 strawberries
- 12 ounces sweet white wine (sauv blanc will work)
- 1/2 cup Sprite

How to make it happen:
Step 1: Cut up your kiwi and strawberries and add to a glass container with your vodka, triple sec, raspberries, and wine.
Step 2: Let those berries soak up that booze in the fridge for 2-3 hours before you're ready to serve.
Step 3: When you're ready to serve, pour sangria into glasses, scooping in some fruit to make it festive. 
Step 4: Top with Sprite, garnish with an extra kiwi- and enjoy!

Festive- right? 
And- if you're a hot-drink purist for the season, feel free to Pin it for a summer party- it'll still be great then too :)

What seasonal drink will you be serving this Christmas?
Feel free to share- I'm always up for new ideas!
