Sangria
Last night I went to a Portuguese restaurant and noticed Sangria on the menu. I remember my mum drinking this when we went for our family holidays when I was a kid.
Anyway I ordered some and it was lovely, it also had a cinnamon stick in it (Is it just me or is the smell of cinnamon the best aroma in the world?), which I’ve never seen before.
As I have a half bottle of red sitting on the side, I decided to create my own. You know what, it’s even better!
Where is what I added:
- Half bottle of red wine
- 2 cans of Sprite
- 1 and 1/2 cans of fresh orange juice
- Half can of mango juice
- Half can of apple juice
- Half can of pineapple juice
- 1 big apple, chopped into little bite sized pieces
- 2 oranges, chopped into little bite sized pieces.
Mix all and put in the fridge until sun set time!
Cheers!
I love that you add mango, apple, pineapple juice and sprite. It sounds very delicious and refreshing! I need to give this a try.
The only thing I noticed is that you only have half a bottle of red wine. I take it you don’t like booze the way I like booze. I do a full bottle of wine plus about a 1/4 cup of triple sec or what ever orange liquor that I have handy. Gosh, I make myself sound like an alcoholic
I wrote this when I was in the Philippines… I just grabbed what ever was in the fridge and it turned out very good. I haven’t made it since thou… maybe over the weekend
