Jaleo's Cava Sangria

• servings: 4 servings
• total time: 10 minutes

Ingredients

1 cup mixed fresh fruit, chopped (such as strawberries, peaches and white grapes)

1 liter spanish dry sparkling wine (cava)

1/4 cup brandy

1/4 cup Licor 43 (or other vanilla-flavored liqueur)

1/4 cup white grape juice

1 teaspoon sugar

1 sprig mint, fresh

additional mint sprig (to garnish)

Directions

Fill a glass pitcher halfway with ice and add the chopped fruit.

Tilt the pitcher and pour the cava very slowly down the side; this will help retain the bubbles.

In another pitcher, combine the brandy, Licor 43, white grape juice and sugar, then pour the mixture into the sparkling wine and fruit.

Give a quick stir and add the mint sprig.

When serving, make sure each glass gets some ice and fruit; garnish with mint if desired.
