White Lightning Sangria

I found this recipe while I was looking for a drink to serve at our house warming party. It wasn't as heavy as typical red wine sangria and it was perfect for summer and with light afternoon snacks. I found it at wine.about.com.

• Ready In: 1 hr 8 mins
• Serves: 8
• Yields: 1 punch bowl

Ingredients

• 1 (750 ml) bottle white wine (Riesling, Albarino, Chablis, Gewurztraminer, Pinot Gris, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc)
• 1⁄2 cup vodka
• 1⁄2 cup  white grape juice
• 1⁄2 cup white sugar
• 1⁄2 cup  sliced grapes (seedless, green or red)
• 1  green apple, sliced
• 1⁄2 pineapple, sliced
• 2  cups  club soda

Directions

1. Pour wine and vodka in the pitcher and add sliced grapes, tangerine and pineapple. Next add sugar and stir gently. Chill mixture for at least one hour. Add club soda just before serving.
2. If you'd like to serve your Sangria right away, use chilled white wine and club soda and serve over lots of ice.
3. Addition ideas: sliced strawberries, a handful of fresh blackberries, banana slices, a half cup of citrus soda pop.
