Happy Summer, you beautiful people!
In case I haven't given you enough options for summer cocktails in the past, I figure I'd throw another one your way. This is a great drink to make for a big crowd- but can be scaled down for single serving as well. Despite the fact that it's fruity- it's surprisingly not super-duper sweet. To be honest, I don't really know what's ACTUALLY in sangria...but because this includes fruit steeping in booze, I'm gonna classify it as just that :)
What you'll need to make it happen:
-1 Bottle Sweet White Wine (I used Barefoot Moscato)
- 1/2 cup Triple Sec
- 1 cup vodka (I used plain Svedka)
- 1 lemon
- 1 large orange
- handful of strawberries & raspberries, chopped
- Sprite or 7 up
How to make it happen:
Step 1: Mix all ingredient but the Sprite together in a bowl or pitcher, including the fruit
Step 2: Add ice to a glass & fill 3/4 full of the sangria mixture
Step 3: Fill glass with ice & garnish with fruit & a lovely straw!
Step 4: ENJOY!
Clearly serving this in a mason jar is the right way to go....
What's your crowd-pleasing summer drink of choice?
If anyone has a great Sangria recipe, I'd love to try it!
