White Sangria


OK I warned you this was the good, bad & ugly. Well the Sangria came out so well that I figured lets make white Sangria, any excuse for me to use lychees, I am obsessed with them. I love their floral flavor that isnt too sweet, still clean tasting and the syrup that comes in the can, lovely....I know I got off the track but its lychees, I told you I am obsessed. OK back on track well the first batch was awful. The wine was too light to carry the flavors I used lemons they were too overpowering as well.


I had to get tis right, it couldnt be that hard to make it work. So heres what I did.


Fill pitcher with a medium body white wine thats 
not too dry, sweet, or oaky. Again I found Opici
to be just right. Homemade Barberone Bianco. My 
family makes fun of me because it comes in a big 
bottle, but its reasonably priced and I like it.
I found lime worked better than lemon just a few 

slices along with a few slices of orange, again the juicing oranges are better, they arent as pretty but they have more flavor.
And lychees with some of the syrup added.
Thats it. Its really a matter of taste and what you
like.


CHEERS
