Hey Amy!

I have shared a delicious traditional sangria recipe, made with red wine.  This one is made from white wine and there is something secretly refreshing about it’s color.  It’s a perfect drink that travels if you need to to take it to a picnic or an outdoor music festival, if you would be doing that this weekend.

Ingredients:

1 lemon cut into 4 thick slices
1 lime, cut into 4 thick slices
1 orange. cut into 4 thick slices
1/2 c. Cointreau
1 bottle of fruity Spanish wine like Verdejo or Albarino
a lot of ice

Put fruit slices in a large pitcher and pout in Cointreau.  Carefully muddle the fruit and liqueur, smashing the fruit slightly.  Add the wine and ice cubes ands tire  Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.

I like it best if the fruit soaks overnight.  Double, triple or quadruple this recipe if you are entertaining or a simple drunk.  I kid, I kid.
