Cocktail Recipe: (Late) Summer Clear Sangria

Party Pleaser
There’s nothing simpler or more crowd-pleasing than mixing up a pitcher of sangria for a party. And most of the prep can be done in advance. With this recipe from Strip House at Westminster Hotel, use your favorite white wine and any variety of fruit you like (or have on hand!). Let it chill until party time; top off with a splash of club soda before serving.
