My Aunt and Uncle gave me a bunch of wine a few Christmases ago, I used some of it to make some Gluhwein or Mulled Wine and I still have a few bottles left. I don’t really drink that often, I know how is it still left?! It had been a rough week last week and I thought that Sangria was a great way to relax and also use up some of that wine. What I love about Sangria is you really just pour it all together and just let it sit in the fridge and get better. I am also more of a white wine person but with Sangria it makes me like red.
OPTIONAL: Sugar or sugar subtitute – Depending on the quality of wine you may need to add sugar, add 1/3 cup at a time to taste. I ended up using a cup of Truvia for the whole batch.
Directions: Add all the ingredients to a large container leaving out the Sprite or 7 UP. Once you are ready to serve fill a glass halfway, then add the Sprite/7 UP to taste.
Enjoy, in your freshly raked lawn with a good book, or doing whatever else. 😉
