Mine is red wine sangria... Probably one of the most delicious things ever created. The latest issue of Food Network Magazine highlights the 50 summer drinks for 2009. Are you a Real Man's Margarita man? Or a Tequila Paloma girl? Or maybe your a Bull's Eye Brew lad. No matter what your drink of choice, maybe you should experiment with some of these summer drinks and who knows, you might find a new favorite. All I know is that I'm going to get drunk trying all these out...Here's my Summer Sangria Recipe
- LOTS of ice
- 1 cup of pulp free OJ
- 1 bottle of Yellow Tail Merlot / Cabernet mix (I found that this has the most flavor of the other cheap wines I've used, but feel free to use your own personal favorite)
- 1 can of original Fresca
- 1 cup of Bacardi O Rum (of course, you may add more depending how "strong" you like it)
- Strawberries, black berries, raspberries, blue berries OR apples, green grapes, nectarines. (I found that if I add acidic fruit it takes away from the flavor, which is why I usually just go with berries and/or apples and nectarines.)
