Nothing Says Summer Like Sangria

July 6th, 2014 · No Brilliant Opinions · Wine

Yesterday, we did a day trip to the North Fork of Long Island to attend a friend’s pool party.  Gorgeous weather, beautiful landscapes and we passed vineyard after vineyard on our way there.  In addition to a strictly vegetarian feast, my friends served a delicious sangria. Feeling inspired, I  decided to make Rachel Ray’s white sangria today.   I used a spanish white wine, Rioja Muga 2013 and a Calvados (an apple brandy from lower Normandy in France).

Super easy to make. I chilled the sangria for a few hours. When it was ready to serve, I placed some raspberries and cut fruit from the pitcher in a glass and topped it off with a splash of sparkling water.  Even Big P gave it the thumbs up!  Nothing says summer like sangria.
