For pretty much my whole life I hated fruit. It grossed me out, I couldn’t get it down, I was kind of terrified of it. I had sangria for the first time a couple years ago and I’m pretty sure this was the first step to me liking fruit. Of course the solution was to mix it with wine! Anyways I wanted to make some sangria with a little holiday flavor. This Christmas Sangria is so delicious it will definitely have you rocking around the Christmas tree…have a few too many and maybe falling on the Christmas tree, so be careful. The weekend is upon us and it is officially December tomorrow so fix yourself a glass of this tasty sangria and turn on that Christmas music!

Yum! I love the wide range of sangria types and flavors, and how there is basically NEVER a time of the year when it’s not an appropriate drink to serve your guests. This one will definitely be part of our Christmas Eve celebration!
