White Wine Sangria





This drink is perfect for summer. It is light, fruity and a little fizz to it and you can change up the fruit that you use as well as the type of wine. Lots of options and we will be making this again!!

Ingredients

1 bottle Spanish white wine (we used New Age wine, see picture below)
1/4 cup super fine sugar
1 lime, thinly sliced
1 lemon, thinly sliced
1 cut up peach
1 1/2 cups seedless green grapes, sliced in 1/2
1/2 cup peach nectar
1/2 bunch fresh mint leaves
Splash of triple sec
Pinch salt
1 12oz can of Sprite
Ice cubes


Directions


In a large pitcher combine the wine and sugar and stir until the sugar dissolves. Add the remaining ingredients, except the Sprite, and mix well. Put the pitcher in the refrigerator and let the sangria sit for at least 1 hour or up to 4 hours. Just before serving, stir in the Sprite and ice cubes.
