Hello July! Hello cloying humidity! Hello heat!
No ovens, no stove-tops, crock-pots or any other sort of heat inducing machines…just ice cold Rose’ Wine, a splash of St. Germain elderflower liqueur, lemons and cucumbers. You will stay hydrated, eat your vegetables, cool down with my ready-for-the-4th of July “Damn! It’s Hot Sangria!”
A giant glass jar is a fine thing to have around for mixing and conjuring.
Drink up…you deserve a cool down…you’ve worked hard. Enjoy the long weekend with friends and family and some Sangria!
Listen to this while you mix and mingle or just want to dance around the house alone while you sip…..St. Germain, Tourist “Rose Rouge”…hot jazz, cool drink!

Gotta try that! I live in Spain so Sangria is what I drink at the weekend 😉
Sangria is certainly a great summer cooler is it not? I bet you have some very good recipes. I love Spain.
