Sundays in Summer

 Days of family dinners outside by the pool

or under the trees at the farm

or the Music Festival in Aspen

or Mendocino

Sangria being the drink of the summer,

homemade Sangria....

Emeril Lagasse

SANGRIA

Recipe

 Ingredients

2 bottles chilled dry red wine, like Rioja

1 cup brandy

1 cup orange juice

1/4 cup superfine granulated sugar

2 oranges, cut into thin rounds

2 Meyer lemons, cut into thin rounds

3 Key limes, cut into thin rounds

2 apples, cored and cut into 1/2-inch chunks

2 cups cold club soda

Directions

In a large pot or bowl, combine the wine, brandy, orange juice, and sugar

and stir until the sugar dissolves. Add the orange, lemon, and lime slices,

 the apples and refrigerate until well chilled, about 1 hour.

(NOTE FROM MARSHA: This takes on a much more full-bodied flavor

after keeping in refrigerator overnight)

Remove from the refrigerator and add the soda.

Serve in glasses over ice

I put peaches in mine as a sweetener.
