Joining in on Flashback Friday with Suzy over at Kitchen Bouquet to flashback to old favorites. This is one of my all-time favorite recipes.This one is a summertime staple at every block party, barbecue or celebration we are invited to or have at our house! A waiter at my favorite Mexican restaurant sort of gave me the recipe. he told me what was in it, and I just threw in amounts until it tasted the way we like it! So everything is more or less, depending how you like it! So maybe it's called More or Less White Sangria!
WHITE SANGRIA
Printable Recipe
For a small pitcher, cut the recipe in half.
2 bottles Sauvignon Blanc or Pino Grigio
1/2 cup brandy
1/2 cup triple sec
1/4 cup white sugar (more or less to taste)
1 liter bottle of Sprite or Seven-Up soda
freshly squeezed lime juice (1 lime)
sliced oranges and apples (you can use peaches, grapes, berries, whatever you like! I like the apples and oranges)
In a large pitcher, combine the 2 bottles of White Wine, Brandy and Triple Sec, sugar, and soda. Add the fruit. Chill for a few hours or overnight. Serve with ice.
