Sangria
Does the liquor store have pre-made Sangria? I would rather just add the fruit than all the ingredients

Re: Sangria
you would be buying mostly sugar water.
sangria is so easy to make and really tastes better when made fresh!

I agree! Easy and cheap (all the recipes say to use the cheapest wine) and you get to use lots of your favorite fresh wine.

I've actually only made white, and just got a recipe for peach sangria, but...
This is the highest rated recipe on allrecipes (I think you could omit the triple sec and just do brandy and wine)
For 6
1/2 c brandy
1/4 c lemon juice
1/3 c frozen lemonade concentrate
1/3 c oj
1 bottle red wine
1/2 c triple sec
1/4 c white sugar
Mix together
Add sliced limes, lemons, oranges, cherries (whatever you want I think)
I also add club soda before serving b/c I like it fizzy.
When I did white I used white grape juice, oj, grapes, oranges, lemons, limes, triple sec and white wine.
Also, just an FYI I just made a great drink for Preakness called The Black Eyed Susan (MD's state flower). It was pineapple orange juice, vodka, triple sec and white rum. I sliced oranges in it, yummy!

Re: Sangria
I just made really yummy Sangria for Mother's Day!
1 jug of red wine (doesn't even matter what kind  just get a jug of cheapo wine)
1 cup of flavored rum (I used Mango)
1 cup of Fresca
1/2 cup Grand Marnier
1 cup OJ
chopped fruit (I used frozen blue berries, apples, frozen grapes, strawberries but you can use pretty much whatever you have in the house!)
Make the day before you are serving so the fruit have time to absorb the yummy flavors

Re: Sangria
I have always made it myself and my friends always like it. I know others add other kinds of alcohol but I just use a large bottle of red (I usually ask for a rec on what is good to make sangria with).
I just add - OJ, Fresca and then apples and oranges and Ice - and people have always liked it.
