Ok, so I fell off a bit with the Thirsty Thursday post but I’m back. This week, I’ll be featuring one of my favorite summer classic drinks. Although summer is slowly coming to a close, you can always have a taste of summer with this one. If you have any specialty beverages you enjoy (alcoholic or non-alcoholic), send them in to smorris@graeenterprises.com and we’ll feature them.
Toast up and enjoy!
White Peach Sangria
Ingredients:
1 bottle of dry white wine (or you can use a Moscato [plain or flavored] or a Riesling)
3/4 peach flavored Vodka (I hear Ciroc Peach is poppin’)
1/4 cup of white sugar
4 cinnamon sticks
3/4 cup of fresh frozen peaches
3/4 cup of fresh frozen strawberries
3/4 cup of seedless red grapes cut in halves
3/4 cup of seedless white grapes cut in halves
