| Sparkling Not So Simple Sangria Flora |
Shuffling through Instagram on Sunday I came across St. Germaine's Sangria Flora .... It looked lovely.
Fact: nothing is nicer than a lovely glass of Sangria on a lovely afternoon.
I headed to my bar and came up with a variation of their recipe to suit my mood and pantry and to cut the alcohol I enlisted the help of my "Not So Simple Syrup" and seltzer. It was as lovely as I imagined and so I had to share with YOU!
What you need:
- 1 bottle chilled Chardonnay or other dry white wine
- 1/4 cup St. Germaine Elderflower Liquer
- 1/4 cup lemon or berry Not So Simple Syrup
- 1 cup halved seedless grapes
- 1-2 pluots (or the stone fruit of your liking), pitted and sliced
- 1 cup chilled sparkling water
What You Do:
1. Pour the wine into a pitcher.
2. Stir in the St. Germaine, Not So Simple Syrup and the fruit.
3. If time allows chill for a few hours (which I acknowledge is not always the case). Right before serving, add the sparkling water to the pitcher, then pour the sangria into glasses packed with ice.
CHEERS!
