Doctor up some jug wine with orange, lemon and a spash of sparkling water and you have yourself a refreshing pitcher of sangria to serve while you’re outside enjoying the last warm days of summer and early fall.  Really anything goes with Sangria — make it sweet, make it tart, squeeze the juice fresh, or use up the assorted dribbles taking up shelf space in the fridge.  Cheers!
