Wow! What a great recipe! This one really packs a punch, so make sure you're home for the night or your hostess takes your keys from you. I like that it's not diluted with soda. I used pineapple rum and replaced the lemon (since I was out) with a kiwi fruit. This drink is not only pretty to look at but tasty too. Thanks for sharing!

This was my first attempt at Sangria. I chose this recipe because I didn't have any triple sec. Lucky me, it turned out sooooo much better than the Carlo Rossi stuff I used to buy in a jug.
