Sangria Anyone? The Wino's Wine Guide Recipe for Sangria.

With temperatures in the 100+ Degrees, decided to make a batch of Sangria to help cool things down!  Below is our recipe for Sangria.  We make it on the light side to allow for "teetotalers" to enjoy but adding a shot or two of our favorite Rum or Brandy gives it the strength that "heavyweight" Winos like us require.  Mix up a batch, adjust as you wish, and do let us know how it turned out!
The Wino's Wine Guide Recipe for Sangria:
  • 1 Bottle of Red Wine (750 ml bottle of Merlot, Shiraz, or Tempranillo works well).
  • 1 Can of Passion Fruit Juice Concentrate
  • Water per the instructions on the Passion Fruit Juice Concentrate Can
  • 1/2 Liter of Seltzer of Club Soda
  • 1 Lime skinned and cut into small pieces
  • 1 Orange skinned and cut into small pieces
  • 1 Peach skinned and cut into small pieces
  • 2 Shots of Bacardi 151 Rum
Mix all ingredients in a suitable pitcher, and then chill overnight.  Add additional shots of your favorite Brandy or Rum to your glass to "fortify" as desired.
