Drink Up Baby, Stay up all Night

For the final installment of "How to throw a party for 10$ a Person" I offer thee Sangria's.  I don't see how you could possibly go wrong with anything Spanish.  Unless of course you consider history and politics, but every one makes mistakes and--more importantly-- it's never fair to cast the shady eye of bigotry over all when just a few hold the power.

The guests of the party would tell you we got pretty drunk.  As with any Sangria--there are many-- this requires over night soaking.

What you Need: 

2 boxes Red Wine (Shiraz)
2 oranges, 2 lemons
1 apple
1/4 C sugar
1/4 Brandy
Club Soda

In case you were wondering: Sangria means
blood in Spanish.


Party Sangria


Slice up fruit.
Press fruit into sugar.
Mix Wine, fruit and
Brandy in a large cauldron.
Transfer to plastic or glass
containers and refrigerate
over night.
*We served drinks from a nice pitcher.

Pour ice into wine glass (to stretch drink out) add sangria and a splash of club soda.   

Total Time: 30 minutes plus over nite
