    Refreshing Summer Sangria

    Style & Life: the Elegant Edit on all things fashion, beauty, food & drink, home and kindness

    Summer is here…and so are brunches, BBQs and sunny Saturday afternoons. Sangria is a perfect beverage for casual gatherings because it is easy to prepare in large batches and people can serve themselves. The sangria recipe I shared for Mother’s Day is a rosé sangria…this one is made with a dry white wine, and I like to use Sauvignon Blanc.  My husband’s family loves this particular sangria and so I make it a few times in the summer…it is delicious, easy to prepare and is pretty in the pitcher. I am confident you and your guests will love this refreshing summer sangria.
