Skinny Sangria

Just because you are eating healthy, doesn't mean you have to deprive yourself of a good time. Use this delicious Sangria recipe next time you are having a party!

Sangria

Ingredients -
  • 1 (Magnum) bottle red wine
  • 1/2 cup brandy
  • 1/2 cup orange liqueur (recommended: Cointreau)
  • 1/2 cup splenda
  • 1/2 cup orange juice
  • 1/2 cup club soda
  • 1 medium unpeeled orange, sliced
  • 1 unpeeled lemon, sliced
  • 1/2 cup strawberries cut up
  • 1/2 cup blueberries
  • 1 apple sliced

Directions -
In a pitcher combine the wine, brandy, orange liqueur and sugar and stir until the sugar is dissolved. Stir in the orange juice and club soda. Add the fruit, and chill. Serve over ice.

Tips - Sangria is not an exact science, use what you have and it will come out great. On suggestion is to cut the fruit the night before and soak in wine so it takes on the flavor!
