Secret Ingredient Sangria

I LOOOOOVE Sangria! Whenever I go to a restaurant and they have it on the menu I order it, if I’m asked to bring a drink to a party, I make it…who doesn’t love a good glass of Sangria? Well, I have come up with the perfect Sangria recipe, and it is all thanks to my father-in-law (who, as an aside, makes amazing bread who I’m trying to convince to guest post). What’s the secret ingredient…drum roll…FRESCA! A splash of this goodness really jazzes the Sangria up and brings out the citrus notes! Everyone that has tried this has absolutely loved it and asked how to make it! Do you have a favorite Sangria recipe?

Instructions

• In a pitcher muddle the fruit slices and sugar (if you don't have a muddler just smash and stir the fruit and sugar together with a plastic spoon-a wood spoon will get stained).
