Red Wine Adventure start up and Sangria recipe

My mother in law aka Mom and I  read that red wine is good for you soooo this is the start of our red wine adventures.

We bought our wine glasses and sat down to stitch and i made salsa...I found this wine to be a bit bland. I would use this to make Sangria ......it was inexpensive coming in between 4 and 7 bucks.

Mom gagged but managed to get her tiny tiny bit down. I have to say i love the sweeter reds and this just did not hit for me.

Sangria

Left over bottle of wine, 1 liter of sprite, serria mist, or such drink, cut up 2 oranges, 2 lemons, 2 limes or 6 key limes, 1 small can pineapple rings or chunks, small jar cherries or a cup of real cherries pitted, and for you who are adventurous, i can of tropical fruit like add mango, papaya, guava, star fruit, kiwi  ......

Put all in HUGE bowl Kooler or tub........Let soak for a couple of hours and add ice and punch it up!

Serve with hot latin dishes and watch antonio bandarars movies, listen to Enrigue or pitbull.
