When the weather warms up and there is lots of in season fruit to choose from, that means one thing to me- Sangria! I love a drink that uses fresh fruit and since this recipe calls for chunks of it, you can finish off your drink with a strong fruit snack! I also find Sangria a great way to use a bottle of wine that isn't my favorite to drink on its own (sorry Sauvignon Blanc).
Serves 4
1 small orange halved and then cut in slices
1/2 cup grapes cut in half
5 large strawberries chopped
1/2 cup mango cubed
4 oz vodka- I like Tito's
1 bottle white wine like a Sauvignon Blanc
Splash of lemon flavored seltzer- Spindrift if possible
Add all the fruit into a glass container. Pour the vodka over it and cover with lid. Shake up container and refridgerate for about 6 hours.
Remove fruit from fridge and place into a pitcher. Pour in wine and stir together with a wooden spoon. Let sit in the fridge for 30 minutes. Pour into glasses and top with a splash of seltzer. Gently stir together and enjoy!
