Make sangria in a big batch and enjoy with friends at any of your summer celebrations.
Sangria is great with barbecued food, especially with dishes that are spicy.
Be adventurous.
Add fruits the that you like. Try apples (make sure they have no wax-coating), cherries, strawberries, peaches, blueberries, mangoes, or whatever!
This is a great summertime sangria punch recipe (that's actually a bit more traditional) that you can use to get you started.
Enjoy!
