Very few cocktails say summer like sangria. I understand that many people aren't huge fans of the drink, because of the inclusion of wine. If this is the case for you, feel free to add about 8 ounces of peach nectar to the mix; this should sweeten things up a bit--providing an additional fruity flavor--and reduce the bite of the wine.
Ingredients:
1 bottle dry white wine
2 shots white rum
1 liter club soda, divided
8 ounces peach nectar (optional)
3 tbsp. sugar
2 ripe peaches, pitted and wedged
1 lime, seeded and wedged
1 lemon, seeded and wedged
1 pear, seeded and wedged
1 Golden Delicious apple, seeded and wedged
1 Fuji apple
1 pint raspberries
Slice, seed (or pit), and wedge all fruit (with the exception of the raspberries, of course). Add to a large pitcher.
Add the two shots of white rum over the fruit in the pitcher.
Add the sugar to the fruit.
Pour about half of the club soda bottle into the pitcher over the sugar and fruit. Starting to look a little irresistible, right?
Pour the entire bottle of wine into the pitcher.
Chill for several hours to let the flavors combine and produce the optimal fruity flavor.
Pour the wine over spooned fruit, in a glass or goblet. Top off the sangria with a little additional club soda to add a splash of fizz. Serve immediately.
