And I'm back after a bit of a technology detox. It's oddly refreshing when you don't post on social media for a week. Now I didn't go cold turkey, I still liked and commented on stuff, but no posting on my part. I didn't realize how much I pressured myself to post, or get the so called perfect picture.
I'm slowly beginning to post again, but I'm taking more of a carefree approach to it than I used to. Anyhoo, here's a recipe, if you can even call it a recipe, is extremely flexible. It's more of a guideline than a recipe.
I ended up making this because I had leftover wine (who ever heard of such a thing?!) from a recipe that I will be sharing soon.
This recipe is for about half of a bottle of wine, but can easily be halved or doubled depending on how much wine you have or how much sangria you want to drink!
Sangria
Ingredients:
½ bottle of wine
juice of 2 clementines
½ cup halved blackberries
segments of 1 clementine
chilled ginger ale or seltzer water
Directions:
1. In a medium bowl or pitcher, combine wine and clementine juice. Stir in blackberries and clementine segments. Cover and refrigerate 4 hours, or overnight.
2. To serve, fill glass with ice if desired, then fill glass halfway with sangria and fill the rest of the glass with ginger ale or seltzer water.
Notes:
If desired, orange liquor maybe added (I use ¼ cup per bottle of wine).
Feel free to substitute other citrus fruits for the clementines.
I used a sweet red wine, but use whatever you like best.
