unnamed (2)With 4th of July being less than 10 days everyone is planning their BBQ’s. Why not toast to the USA by serving up a batch of Woodbridge by Robert Mondavi Star Spangled Sangria, the perfect summer refreshment for get-togethers with friends and family. I have provided this tasty recipe for your convenience!

Enjoy!

Woodbridge by Robert Mondavi Star Spangled Sangria

Serves 8

½ cup sugar

½ cup lemon juice

1 (10 ounce) bottle club soda

1 (750 milliliter) bottle of Woodbridge by Robert Mondavi Pinot Grigio

1 lemon, sliced

Ice

Star fruit, strawberries, blueberries and mint leaves for garnish

 

  1. Dissolve sugar in the lemon juice in a large pitcher.
  2. Add club soda, Pinot Grigio, lemon slices and mix well.  Note, do not add ice cubes until ready to serve or it will dilute the sangria.
  3. Pour into glasses and garnish with star fruit, strawberries, blueberries and/or mint leaves

*Entertaining Tip: when making for a large group, double or triple using a large container with a tap. Put the ice in a tube in the center of the container to keep it from diluting the mixture, but keep it cold. Add in some of the strawberries and oranges in the container to give the drink a festive touch!
