Spicy Sangria


"Spicy Sangria" .. "Are you ready to heat up the night?" 

Put on your dancin' shoes, turn up the a/c and get your mouth ready for the most exciting thing all summer .. My “Spicy Sangria” recipe!

Great complement for a evening filled with chips, salsa and your favorite guacamole recipe!

Spicy Sangria

Ingredients 

1 Bottle of red wine (I would consider a Malbec to fit the spicy palate theme!)
1 chili pepper or jalapeno diced (for less heat remove seeds)
1 Lime cut into wedges
1 Lemon cut into wedges
1 Orange cut into wedges
1 Mango diced into cubes
1/2 cup honey or sugar
2 tsp. Cholula hot sauce
1 1/2 ounce of of Rum
2 cups of Citrus flavored cola, (for those who prefer a little less sweet use a bottle of club soda)

Directions 

In a pitcher, pour wine and squeeze the juice wedges from the lime, lemon and orange. Toss in the fruit wedges and add diced mango, honey/sugar, Rum and hot sauce to the mix. Chill overnight. Add citrus cola or club soda just before serving. If you'd like to serve right away, use chilled red wine and serve over lots of ice. Garnish with lime and jalapeno.

This “unique” twist to Sangria will have your guests scrambling for more .. better make double batch!

“Cheers”!
