A lazy Saturday calls for...

... sangria!

Rioja and fruit

I've been looking for a good sangria recipe for quite a while. I found one here, at Livefire. It's very simple:

I've modified it slightly:

750 ml bottle of Rioja
500 ml bottle of sparkling water
1 lime
1 lemon
1 orange
1/4 cup brandy
4 tbsp simple syrup
1 tbsp cinnamon
a smattering of blueberries
Slice the fruit thin (including the blueberries). Mix with the brandy and wine, let sit as long as you can stand it, then add everything else and serve over ice.

Sangria

Delish. There's something super decadent about blogging with a sangria in my hand...
