French Sangria

by shereen pavlides

this is my French version to the Spanish Sangria, only much more simpler. I have to be honest, I’m not a huge fan of the red Lillet but the white Lillet… I love!

Lillet is a French Aperitif Wine that’s traditionally served before a meal to stimulate your palate. marinading Lillet with berries takes this French wine to a whole new level. whether enjoying a glass before dinner or enjoying during the afternoon while at the beach, its a Refreshing, Fruity, Light and a very Beautiful cocktail.

if any remaining fruit is left over, add to a bowl with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Its awesome!

Happy Weekend. Enjoy Responsibly..
