Sangria by the pool...


Before you get too jealous, keep in mind that this is the pool. Ha! Also keep in mind that it is 87 degrees inside my house right now.
Recipe:
1 or 2 bottles of dry red wine, depending on how much you want to make.
1 oz. brandy
1 oz. triple sec ( you don't need these if you don't have them)
1/3 cup sugar(or less if you want it less sweet)
orange slices
lemon slices
2 Green apples, peeled and chopped
pineapple chunks
Club soda. You can use lemon-lime flavor and not as much sugar
Combine wine, brandy, triple sec and fruit in a pitcher. Refrigerate, preferably overnight. Before serving, fill glass about a quarter full with club soda. pour wine mixture over, spoon some fruit into glass. enjoy!

Yum-O! But wouldn't it just be easier to by the jug of stuff at Target and add booze :-) Now not as rewarding as a recipe from scratch but easier all the same :-) Hope a relaxing day was had!!!
