Goodbye Summer Sangria


Recently, Terrence and I went floating down the Guadalupe River with a group of friends. If you have  ever partaken of this glorious summer pastime, you know that the  main purpose is drinking, getting a tan and trying to find a way to contort your body so that you don't look fat in the tube. Usually, libation of choice is beer. And, I like beer. But, not that much. And not int the sun. And not for hours. And not when it makes me bloat (especially when my body is contorted into a strange shape).

So, I decided to make myself a jug of cool, white sangria with lots of fruit and flavor. I stumbled upon a recipe online, and realized I had struck liquid gold. I used peaches, pineapples, mangoes and blueberries. It turned out LOVELY. In fact, so lovely, that most of the people in my group were clamoring for "just a little bite of peach!" or "just one more sip! I promise!" If bringing sangria to a beer party was ever looked down upon, then it is no longer. Feel free to sip this fruity summer sweetness whenever you please. 

Gather together:
Sweet white wine. Cava, Prosecco, Moscato, Gewurtztraminer, or Riesling. (I used a semi-sweet Riesling)
Triple Sec
Lemon Juice
Stevia
Cut fruit of your choice
