spanish calimocho (coca-cola sangria?!)
Now here is something new that surprised and intrigued me! It seems there is a red sangria that we have not yet heard of here in North America, but they have heard of it in Spain! And also across South America. In fact, it was invented in Spain. It's easy and cheap to make. Use an inexpensive wine, as you're mixing it with Coke! Ignore the wine snobs and give this a try, it may surprise you. It did me. It's good! It will be great on a hot summer day!

How To Make spanish calimocho (coca-cola sangria?!)
-
Step 1Make sure all ingredients are well chilled. In the bottom of a pitcher, lightly muddle some mint leaves and lemon slices, (retaining most for garnish), then pour the chilled red wine and coke over it and stir.
-
Step 2Add ice cubes to cocktail glasses of your choice and pour the sangria over. Nudge in some lemon slices and top with a sprig of mint.
-
Step 3If the ice dilutes the drink too much, add more wine! Enjoy!
