Love it!
I am a sangria lover and have been into trying different kinds of sangria.
So when I ran across this idea from http://www.howsweeteats.com, I knew what I would be serving this Thanksgiving!
With all that cooking before and during Thanksgiving, I'll be needing one of these.
Ingredients:
1 bottle of pinot grigio
2 1/2 cups fresh apple cider
1 cup club soda
1/2 cup ginger brandy
3 Honey Crisp apples, chopped
3 pears, chopped
Combine all the ingredients and stir together. Refrigerate for at least an hour and then serve.
The ginger brandy is what lends the autumn like flavor and I always love the way the apples and pears soak up the flavor too.
Ahhh, sangria, a perfect compliment to the Thanksgiving meal!
Hey, did you know that to eat smarter at Thanksgiving you should follow the rule of thirds? One-third of your plate with vegetables/fruit, one-third with whole grains/starches and one-third with protein should be how you fill your plate. Wait one second...
I think the fruit in your sangria will allow you to change the one-third of starches to two-thirds! Are you with me????
