Raspberry and Serrano Sangria


Are you ready to start thinking about making fun and refreshing summer drinks? This girl is. I am allergic to strawberries, so I might substitute peaches in this recipe, but it sounds kind of amazing. 
  • 1 small carton of raspberries
  • 1 small carton of strawberries
  • 1 lime
  • 2 apples, granny smith and a braeburn
  • 1 serrano pepper (more if you are daring)
  • 1 bottle of Viognier
  • 1/2 cup of white grape juice
  • 1/4 cup of sugar
  • 1 can of club soda
  • Mint leaves for garnish

Layer all of the the different fruits in a tall pitcher, adding a dash of sugar in between every layer. For an interesting twist, you could use honey or agave instead of plain sugar. After all of the fruit has been layered, add the sliced serrano chile and the remaining sugar. Let sit for 10 minutes.
Next add the Viognier to the fruit, sugar mixture, white grape fruit juice and top it all off with the club soda. Place in the refrigerator to chill.


mmmm.
