It's time for another Secret Recipe Club reveal!
This month I received Cafe Lynnylu. Her pictures are stunning!
It was really fun to look at all the different recipes and beautiful photos. After browsing I decided on Apple Sangria (originally from Cooking Light). I love sangria and was excited to try this recipe- perfect for our Saturday evening cocktail. Ron and I really liked this recipe and the only this I would modify is to leave out the cloves because they were a bit strong for me. Thank you for a delicious new cocktail! Check out the other Secret Recipe Club participants below!

This sounds refreshing, and now I'm thinking about dropping the club soda and sipping a warm mugful.

Hi Ashley,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the delicious version of my apple sangria! I'm so happy your family liked it! I agree-cloves can be overpowering and I would probably use just one or leave them out completely.
I am not a big wine drinker, but I'm thinking I would really enjoy this sangria!! What a great choice!
ReplyDeleteI love different flavored sangria, sounds wonderful!
ReplyDeleteIf you haven't already, I'd love for you to check out my group 'A' SRC entry Loaded Potato Soup.
