Happy New Year! This year, I (daughter) traveled to Broken Arrow, OK to ring in the new year with dear friends, tamales, and an amazing homemade New Mexico inspired chicken soup. What kind of a friend would I be if I didn't bring my famous sangria to wash it all down? Several years ago, I concocted this happy juice based on several recipes I'd found online. Most sangrias use club soda for the "fizzy" element. Club soda is for amateurs. I use champagne or sparkling wine instead of club soda. Mucho delicioso!! Try it...I promise you'll love it. And if you don't, bring it over and I'll finish it off for you!
Lacey’s Sangria
1.5 Ltr Burgundy Wine
1 c Brandy
1 c Triple Sec
½ c Lemon Juice
1 c orange juice
1 c sugar
1 lemon, sliced
1 orange, sliced
750 ml champagne
Combine all ingredients except champagne. Refrigerate overnight. Add champagne just prior to serving, and serve on the rocks.
Wow was that a great get together? I'm sure the sangria was the reason. I vote it the "Best Sangria"~ I know it's the best I've ever had!
