A Farewell to Summer Sangria White

Summer is fading fast, but we can make it last a little longer with this tasty drink to share with friends! This wonderful Sangria White is delicious and satisfying.  This recipe is from a friend of mine and she suggested maxing the flavor with a little gin, brandy or rum.  I included a splash of Blanco tequila and it was perfect!

Sangria needs time for the flavors to develop so make it the day before you serve it.  Better start right now!

Sangria White

Bottle of white wine – Riesling, Chablis, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay or Pinot Gris

2 oranges, cut in wedges plus 1 more to slice thinly

1 lemon, one-half cut in wedges and the other half thinly sliced.

1 lime, one-half cut in wedges and the other half thinly sliced

2/3 cups sugar

1/2 liter ginger ale or club soda

Pour the wine into a pitcher and add the juice of the citrus. Toss in the sliced fruit (without the seeds) and stir in the sugar.  Chill well, preferably overnight but you can fudge on this a little.

Just before servicing add the ginger ale or club soda.  Serve over ice and add other fruits if you want – strawberries, blueberries and more!

Want to rev it up a bit?  Add a shot (or two) of gin, brandy or rum.

Enjoy!
