SUMMER DRINK SERIES // Red Sangria

I've been contemplating starting a wine series for a while now because I'm always on the hunt for yummy reds! 


RECIPE: inspired by Bobby Flay's Red Wine Sangria Recipe, but tweeked for my own tastebuds!

INGREDIENTS:

2 bottles of full body Red Wine (I like Cabernet Sauvignon OR Merlot)

1 cup Brandy

1/2 cup Triple Sec

1 cup Orange Juice

1 cup Cranberry Juice

1/2 cup Simple Syrup (equal parts water + sugar)

Lots & Lots of Cinnamon Sticks

Fresh Fruits of your choice:

My favourite:

Orange

Nectarine

Green Apples

Strawberries

 

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Mix it all together

2. Add Ice

3. Let it sit as long as you can wait until your first sip! 

(tastes the best after 24 h though)
