Who Doesn't Love a Good Party !!!



So it is no secret that I am NOT a fan of Football...Worked to many years in the restaurant industry and had to tolerate Monday Night Football Wing BONANZA...that now just the sound or site of it gives me a rash...

But as you also know I am a lover of a great PARTY...So football aside...Bring on the food and libations....

Here is my Favorite Sangria recipe...It is a great drink to make for your fabulous Super Bowl Shindig...
  • 1 bottle Red Wine- your choice in size, I say bigger is always better...
  • 1 bottle of apple juice or white grape juice
  • 2 ounces lemon flavoured vodka
  • 2 tablespoons sugar or honey
  • Juice of 1 large orange
  • Juice of 1 large lemon
  • Juice of 1 large lime
  • 1 sm orange, sliced thin crosswise
  • 1 sm lemon, sliced thin crosswise
  • 1 sm lime, sliced thin crosswise
  • 1 cup frozen raspberries
  • 2 large springs of mint- wash really well
Add everything to a large bowl and let sit in the fridge for about 24 hrs...Serve over ice...When serving to your guests you can add a splash of soda water or Sprite for some fun fizz...Or an extra shot of Vodka if your team is losing...

Enjoy the party...Hope your team gets lots of baskets....;)

Cheers
