Summer is right around the corner. That means hot sunny days and cold sips. One of my favorite summer sips is this Summer Sangria.
I received this recipe many years ago from a friend who had just returned from a trip to Spain. She made this drink one sunny afternoon at a get together and I instantly fell in love with it. I just had to have the recipe!
I have since made this at many summer gatherings of my own and it is always a hit! Cheers to summer!
Enjoy!
