summer make this do it sangria

July 16, 2012

My parents were at the lake this weekend, so my friends and I embraced our inner 16 year old selves and went to their house to drink their alcohol and sit by the pool and pretend we were adults on vaca. [Side story: I got a text from my mom saying it was raining at the lake we normally go to, so they drove to Lake Havasu and rented a Sea-Doo near the London Bridge…Which made me think that my real parents stumbled into some peyote or were abducted by aliens out in the desert and replaced by 21 year old spring breakers.] I guess it was the theme of the weekend. Keepin it young!  The real purpose of this post is that I wanted to share a killer drink I made (up). It started out as a sangria and by day 2 I added more booze and ice and threw it in a blender, and it became some sort of frozen deliciousness. Sangria: Chopped Strawberries, Mango, White Nectarines 1 Bottle of Moscato (sweet white wine) 1 Bottle of Sparkling White Wine Frozen Deliciousness: Splash of Rum Splash of Tequila Splash of Fruit Juice (My mom had passion fruit in her fridge) 2 cups of ice Cheers!
