  1. I really enjoyed this drink. I used a chardonnay and cabernet and really enjoyed the flavor. Thanks for sharing, Breezer.
     
  2. What a terrific drink. Quick and so easy to make, with the flavor of traditional sangria. I enjoyed this sassy drink very much; it had a hint of sweetness, tart, tangy, lemony and full of depth. I used a chardonnay and my favorite red wine (Big House Red), which worked beautifully in this drink. Thank you for sharing a drink that I will make again and again.
     
  3. I love this - a little sangria, a little rock n' roll! Thanks for an easy summer beverage. Made for ZWT 8.
     
  4. Boy I loved this! I made individual servings, proportioned as the recipe specifies, and used Splenda to sweeten. Crisp and fresh tasting and not too sweet - terrific - thanks for sharing the recipe!
     
  5. I really enjoyed this wonderful wine cocktail. It was a wonderful blend of white and red wine, and sweetened just enough to bring out the citrus touch from the lemon. Thank you for posting, breezermom. Made for ZWT5.
