Season’s Greetings Holiday Sangria

We’re almost ready to get our Christmas tree up and decorated. Normally we’d at least have a few items of decor here and there throughout the house but this year due to so many different issues we’re a tad behind.

That’s not to say we aren’t feeling festive, oh we’re getting our Jingle Bells in full swing over here. Just last night we watched our beloved Pioneer Woman make her Christmas movie debut in a Candy Coated Christmas. Cute movie, very reminiscent of a Hallmark movie, which wasn’t really shocking, as we’ve seen pretty much every single one of those.

I have a great addition to Thanksgiving menus that I’m sharing today, Season’s Greetings Holiday Sangria. This is such a simple recipe that adds a nice wow factor to your holiday table or buffet.

Loaded with fresh-cut fruit and sprigs of rosemary this stunning cocktail is assembled in a pitcher making it ideal for a group. It does pack a bit of a boozy kick, but it is the holiday season. So ho ho ho, just drink responsibly.
