So can we talk about Christmas drinks??
Because it’s “Christmas Drink Saturday”!! Yes, yes, yes!
I have a few drinks to share this month and I’m pretty excited about them… OKAY, really excited about them! My family has been getting me into this whole mixed drink thing and even though I am not big on alcohol, I’m really having fun making them drinks. I will not lie, I am not the world’s best mixologist. I have made a few too many REALLY strong drinks (think sanitize your cuts STRONG). SO, I am sticking to pretty simple recipes, but learning a little more as I go.
I’m kicking off “Christmas Drink Saturday” with this festive sangria. It’s got all the flavors of Christmas + a bottle of wine. Yes, a little white wine, a little ginger beer, a little apple cider, some brandy, a few pears, a few oranges and a bunch of pomegranate arils. It’s definitely on the sweeter side due to the apple cider and ginger, so you have to be into a sweet drink. If you are, this is totally for you, and I gotta say, it’s pretty delicious!
And totally pretty! Perfect for your holiday parties!! Bring on the holiday entertaining!

This is such a great idea! I always considered Sangria as a summer drink but, hey! Why not for winter too?? You just change the fruits et voilá!
Plus, it looks so good in your photos!!

I’m not usually one for Sangria but this one seems amazing – brandy, pomegranate, and the bonus of having the excuse of “it’s for Christmas” to try it? Perfect.
Also, all I really want to know is where you got those round glasses (tumblers? stemless wine glasses?). They look so nice ^.^
I love sangria and this really looks good.
I get headaches from alcohol but I would like a little bit of this or maybe a lot.
The pictures are really colorful.
That gif makes it look so tempting xD
I love how festive this is! Not sure how I feel about the cinnamon though
