Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 bottle Tempranillo
  • 1 can pineapple chunks drained (keep the pineapple juice for another cocktail like a margarita)
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries halved
  • 2 cups whole strawberries for garnish
  • 1 cup orange juice
  • 1/2-1 cup Grand Marnier

Method
 

  1. This drink is gorgeous. Add all ingredients to a glass pitcher (without ice) so your guests can see the fruit.
  2. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
  3. Add ice to glass, pour Sangria over the ice.
  4. Garnish each glass with a strawberry. Cut each strawberry garnish halfway down the middle so it will stay on the rim of the glass.
