Shinsei Sangria
Do you love sangria, but want something a little different from the traditional style? Well we have the perfect cocktail recipe for you! Shinsei Sangria is a take on the Spanish classic with an Asian twist. Adding in lychees and sake adds just the kick you were hoping for while still keeping the fruit infused flavor.
Ingredients:
- 3 pears, sliced
- 3 oranges, sliced
- 6 Granny Smith apples, sliced
- 24 canned lychees, drained
- 1 1/2 pineapples, peeled and cut into large chunks
- One 750-milliliter bottle of vodka
- One 750-milliliter bottle of Sauvignon Blanc or other dry, citrusy white wine
- One 750-milliliter bottle sake
- Ice
Directions:
In an airtight container or large bowl covered with plastic wrap, combine all of the ingredients except the ice and refrigerate for at least 24 hours. Strain the mixture into a punch bowl, discarding all of the fruit except for 18 of the lychees. Add enough ice to chill the sangria to serving temperature. Serve in ice-filled white wine glasses and garnish with the reserved lychees.
