Sue's Sangria

And yet another Contest!  This one at http://rockville.wholefoodsmarketcooking.com

Friend's wife got this from a tapas bar on a trip they took - best Sangria I've ever had =)
Serves 6
  • 1/2 cup Gin
  • 1/2 cup Brandy
  • 1/2 cup Triple Sec
  • 4 cups Red Wine
  • 1 1/2 cup Lemon-Lime Soda
  • 1 lemon, lime & orange, diced
  • 1/2 cup each red & green grapes, seeded & diced
Mix liquids EXCEPT soda in 2 + quart pitcher. Add fruit. Refrigerate at least an hour, but not much longer, for fruit to absorb liquors. Serve in tall glasses, about 1/3 filled with ice (crushed/cracked ice is a nice touch!) then liquor mix leaving room for about 1/2C of soda per glass. Cheers =)

Great way to get your fruit serving? oh and BTW -  I just halve the grapes....and if making a larger "batch" use boxed wine....and she adds fruit when she is serving - I like that extra punch?
