Sangria Recipe

We finally got hit with a winter snow that amounts to anything and I've been outside most of the day either scrapping or shoveling. I'm in more of a "drinking" mode than "making" mode and thought I would pull out an easy drink recipe. Besides, I usually associate sangaria with summer and partying, not scrapping or shoveling snow.

So, Enjoy !!!

INGREDIENTS


* 1 lemon

* 1 lime

* 1 orange

* 1 1/2 cups rum

* 1/2 cup white sugar

* 1 (750 milliliter) bottle dry red wine

* 1 cup orange juice


DIRECTIONS


1. Have the fruit, rum, wine, and orange juice well chilled. Slice the lemon, lime and orange into thin rounds and place in a large glass pitcher. Pour in the rum and sugar. Chill in refrigerator for 2 hours to develop the flavors.

2. When ready to serve, crush the fruit lightly with a wooden spoon and stir in the wine and orange juice. Adjust sweetness to taste.
