Berry Lemonade Sangria

By Carolanne

Description: I adapted this recipe from one I found online several years ago. I switched up the wine, increased the triple sec and decreased the fruit. It is refreshing and pretty, perfect for a cookout or a ladies' night in.
Cost: $1.63 per serving (based on a $7 bottle of wine).
