Sangria

Sangria is such a refreshing summer drink and to easy make ahead for a party.  I don’t use expensive red wine for this drink because the fruit and Cointreau mask any nuances in a good quality wine.  You can also use white wine.  I add a fourth of a cup of orange juice or apple juice concentrate to sweeten it, and any combination of fresh fruit and berries.  I often like to serve it over ice with a splash of sparkling water for a really refreshing drink.  Click here for the recipe….
