Spring Sangria & Mothersday

Spring is a time of celebration, rejuvenation, rebirth, and
celebration, did I say that already? Well it’s kind of what I am going for
here. Recently we celebrated the 60th birthday of someone near and
dear to my heart and I made this amazing Spring Sangria. It was a hit at the
party and I thought it might also be a hit for your mom this Mother’s Day.

 

Fresh Spring Sangria
1 bottle Spanish White Wine
1 lime, sliced
1 lemon sliced
½ cup sliced strawberries
1 granny smith apple, cored and sliced thin
1 (12 oz) can of seltzer
2 cups mint simple syrup
Combine all ingredients in a large picture. Stir to combine
and serve over crushed ice.
Mint Simple Syrup
2 cups sugar
2 cups water
1 cup packed fresh mint leaves

 

In a small saucepan combine all ingrediants over medium
heat. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 4-5 minutes stirring
occasionally, until all of the sugar has fully dissolved. Remove from heat and
let cool before using.
The recipe makes a good sized pitcher but I promise you that
it goes really quickly. It’s super light and fresh, so it’s good for a spring
brunch. And since we are talking about brunch why don’t you check out these
