To almost quote Lou Reed "Drink Sangria in the Garden"

Sunday was the first "phew what a scorcher" day of 2016.

A day gardening (morning) and relaxing (afternoon).

This is our home made Sangria in our authentic Spanish Sangria Jug. Well when I say authentic, it's actually from our local Lidl, but was made in Spain.

As for the Sangria.... Lemonade, Red Wine, Orange Juice a dash of Torres 10 year old brandy, Orange Fruit, Lime Fruit, Ice and some mint from the her garden

Cheers

Did you get the thunder storm? Our tea outside turned into tea inside!

We were too lazy to go to such trouble! good for you!

You would imagine this was taken on your recent holiday Phil, a real summer jug & refreshing looking drink....that would hit the spot!

@newbank we had thunder on Saturday but no rain until today ☺

@caddick cheers Mike. I recommend trying a home made attempt.

@happypat thanks pat. Yes it hit the spot ☺

Not sure how I missed this until now! Beautiful jug. We had sangria at El Sabio tapas restaurant the other evening - very refreshing.
