Ready In: 15 mins
Serves: 8
Yields: 16 5 oz servings
Ingredients
- 1 (750 ml) bottle port wine
- 2 (16 ounce) packages frozen unsweetened strawberries (slightly thawed)
- 1 sprig of fresh mint
- sugar, to taste
- lime slice
- 2 (750 ml) bottles dry sparkling wine
- 1 dash bitters
Directions
- Combine 1st 3 ingredients w/sugar & lime slices in large saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat & simmer 5-10 minutes.
- Remove from heat & cool. Strain into large bowl, cover & chill for at least 1 hour.
- Pour over ice mold in punch bowl, add sparkling wine + bitters & serve immediately in wine glasses.
- NOTE: Yield was based on 2 5-oz servings per person.
- SERVING IDEA: I hate waste & think it would be a good idea to reserve the strawberry solids strained from the simmered wine, puree them w/an immersion blender or food processor & freeze the puree in an ice cube tray to use in place of the suggested ice mold. :-).
