Do you ever feel like our lives these days are planned and scheduled to the max? Every day is filled with places to be and things to do on top on keeping our houses clean and our families fed.
That’s why I was excited to look at my calendar and realize that we have nothing on the schedule or to-do list for this weekend. Woohoo! These are my favorite weekends – the Little Man asks what we are going to do today, and I can say “whatever we want!”
And for this weekend, here is what I want: a pitcher of my new favorite sangria, time with family and friends, and absolutely no agenda. I’ll sit back and watch the rest of the world run around and be glad it’s not me, if only for a weekend.
Peach and Blueberry Sangria, serves 4
- 2 peaches, pureed in a blender with 2 tablespoons sugar
- ½ cup triple sec
- 1 750mL bottle white wine (I prefer to use a sauvignon blanc)
- 1 peach, cut into wedges
- ½ cup blueberries
- 1 cup chilled club soda
Stir together peach puree, triple sec, and wine. Stir in cut peaches and blueberries. Chill at least 4 hours.
Before serving, stir in club soda.
Make sure each glass gets some fruit!
