Summer Sangria

Love this white sangria…fruity, light and refreshing…from good ole Martha Stewart..

• 6 cups of various fruits (mango, pineapple,cantaloupe, apricots) sliced or chunked
• 1/4 cup thinly sliced and peeled ginger
• 1 cup chopped fresh basil or mint leaves
• 1/2 cup orange liquor, Cointreau
• 1 bottle crisp white wine like Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc
• 3 tbl fresh squeeze lemon juice (1 lemon)
• ice

In large pitcher combine fruit, ginger, basil or mint and orange liquor. Mash gently with a wooden spoon until leaves are bruised and fruit juice is released. Add wine and lemon juice, stir to combine. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 1 day.

To serve, fill 8 glasses with ice and top with sangria. top with a leaf of mint and a piece of fruit…Enjoy!
