Those look good @momtochloe and in deed cooler than a cup of cocoa.  Love margaritas with Mexican food but other than that I am pretty basic.  I should have been born back in the old west my preference is just to throw back a shot of Jack Daniels then have one small glass of white wine.  Never could get into boilermakers but whiskey and wine that is the kind of girl I am.Heart

Hiya @beckyb1012, good to see you my friend!  I am a beer girl myself (less dishes) but I have to say I love a nice glass of sangria in the summer.

 

Enjoy the upcoming Memorial Day weekend!

You do the same @momtochloeand @OKPrincess  as of late April I have two sweet grandchildren this year to celebrate with instead of one.  My son just sent me an email showing my three year old granddaughter watching t.v. and I noticed on her lap the quilt I bought for his nursery while pregnant back in 1983.   I used watch t.v. before I hung it on the wall on my lap with him growing underneath.  1983 to 2018 what a great purchase I made!!

Was just thumbing through my Sandra Lee cookbook, and it has some awesome looking summer drinks.  But, oh the alcohol in them. I've never even heard of some of that liquor!

I looked at the recipe for Pina Colada Sangria.  It starts with a bottle of wine - then it says Yield: 1.  That's my kind of recipe lol
