Roman Holiday Sangria

Submitted by susie cooks

"Pinot Grigio is an excellent choice of wine for this recipe. Use Prosecco (an Italian sparkling wine) instead of club soda. This recipe calls for Lemoncello for the lemon liqueur. From a recipe book called Sangria."

wonderful! I am used to red wine sangrias and this was a lovely white! I didn't have grapes but had everything else. This was a big hit with my book group ladies. ZWT 3
