Okay this definitely got the Party Started!
Sangria
I bottle of red you can use a Cab/Sav or Merlot or shiraz or Zinfindel,
I lemon cut into wedges
1 lime cut into wedges
1 orange cut into wedges
2 tbsp of sugar
splash of OJ or Lemonade
2 shots of Triple Sec or Gin (optional)
I cup of raspberries or strawberries
I small can of pineapple & juice
4 cups of ginger ale
Pour wine into large pitcher and squeeze the juice from the wedges of lemon, lime and oranges and toss in the fruit minus the seeds, add the can of pineapple & the juice, then add the sugar, orange juice or lemonade and gin or triple sec. Chill this over night so the flavours can blend.
Just before serving add the ginger ale and berries!
Add good friends and enjoy!!
I doubled the batch, and I didn't add the sugar as one of my bottles of wine was on the sweet side, I used Triple Sec instead of the gin, and I threw in Strawberries and Raspberries, and I used 4 cans of ginger ale and added 2 cans of club soda, just because it was so hot and humid, I was afraid that it would go down really well and I didn't want to make anyone sick! I would imagine this has a kick like a horse!!
I also want to try making it with white wine, but I would add peaches and green grapes, I think would be beautiful! I served it in a huge clear glass serving station, I thought it looked amazing! Put out a ladle too so your guests can scoop out some fruit as well!
