It’s that time of year again! There’s already a change in the air here in Alabama. Even though it is still hot outside the change gets you in the mood for FALL! I’ve added some simple seasonal touches around the house. I’m keeping my fall decor pretty neutral and minimal this year. I’ve been happiest […]

It’s spooky season, yall! I love Halloween. I don’t know why, I always have. Mostly because it’s just about FUN. There are no limits when it comes to decorating. Also, it falls in the best season ever. Oh and dressing up in costume. Doesn’t get much better. My inspiration for this Creepy Corner was these […]

I recently got out all of my fall décor and started playing with it. Ha! I think décor for me is like toys for kids. It is a fun outlet but it can get expensive. I decided to put together a fall tablescape with items I already had. With the exception of a few pumpkins […]

“It’s the most wonderful time of the year…..” No, not Christmas……FALL! Don’t get me wrong, I love Christmas too. Fall is just packed with fun and less stress!

Frozen Sangria
Calling all fellow Sangria lovers! Here is a great way to serve a crowd Sangria for Cinco de Mayo or any other occasion because to me it goes with all occasions. YUM!
Prep: 10 min., Freeze: 24 hr. This makes about 24 servings without breaking the bank. Total cost is about $13.
Makes about 1 1/2 gal.
Ingredients
- 1 gal. sangría
- 1 (12-oz.) can frozen limeade, thawed
- 1 (2-liter) bottle lemon-lime soft drink
- 2 cups sliced oranges, lemons, and limes
1. Place 1 (2-gal.) zip-top plastic freezer bag inside another 2-gal. zip-top plastic freezer bag. Place bags in a large bowl. Combine sangría, limeade, and lemon-lime soft drink in the inside bag. Seal both bags, and freeze 24 hours. (Double bagging is a precaution to avoid spills.)
2. Remove mixture from freezer 1 hour before serving, squeezing occasionally until slushy. Transfer mixture to a 2-gal. container. Stir in fruit.
Kid-Friendly Frozen Sangría: Substitute cranberry juice for sangría. Proceed with recipe as directed

I’m going to try the kid friendly version—Thanks!
Sounds delicious…I wonder if frozen white grape juice would be work, too?
Mmmm this looks good! And easy!
I love the display. Last year I bought one of those jars w/the spout from PB. (was such a hit) The fresh cut up fruit really adds a special touch to it. Such a great recipe to! (try adding 1 cup brandy) It gives it that extra oomph…YUM! Another great post Joanna! (I could live on your site)
