Nancy's White Sangria

The Best Sangria Ever!


1 750 ml bottle of white wine - something drinkable, but doesn't have to be really good

2 T sugar

3T or 1/4 c Grand Marnier

2 T Brandy (suggested French Apply Brandy, although not necessary) or Quantro - never tried this

- mix well, then add the fruit

1 cup fruit - but can use more, I'd double it - fruit suggested: kiwi, pears and grapes. Other fruit I've used: raspberries, strawberries, blackberries, blueberries, melon, peaches (anything that will absorb the liquid).

garnish with mint

Let it chill for about 6 hours for the flavors to meld.

Just before serving: add sparkling water - I usually put a nominal amount, add to taste.
