750 ml Pinot Grigio wine
1 cup simple syrup
1 cup peach schnapps
1 bottle champagne

Red, White and Blue Sangria
Fourth of July has come and gone, but that doesn't mean you can't enjoy this patriotic summer sangria recipe. It's quite picturesque, what with the floating blueberries, raspberries and strawberries -- and the triple sec adds quite the kick.

Ingredients:
1 (750 ml) bottle white wine
3/4 cup triple sec
1 cup sliced fresh strawberries
1/2 cup fresh blueberries
1/2 cup fresh raspberries
1-2 (12 oz) cans lemon lime soda or ginger ale
Ice for serving

Directions:
In a large pitcher combine the wine, triple sec and fruit. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour (it tastes better if it sits in the fridge for a while)
To serve: Pour the soda in the sangria and give it a little stir. Pour over ice into glasses. Spoon some of the fruit into the glass.

Apple and Pear White Sangria
As summer starts to shift to fall, a crisply flavored apple/pear sangria is a great way to celebrate the changing seasons. This recipe comes loaded with lemons, which gives it an extra thirst-quenching boost.

Ingredients:
1 bottle Moscato wine
1/2 cup lemon liqueur (I used Caravella)
Zest of 2 lemons
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (from two lemons)
1 Granny Smith apple, cored, halved, and thinly sliced
1 Bartlett pear, cored, halved, and thinly sliced
1 can (12 ounces) seltzer

Directions:
In a large pitcher, combine wine, lemon liqueur, lemon zest, and sugar. Stir until sugar dissolves. Add lemon juice, apple slices, and pear slices and mix well. Place pitcher in refrigerator for 4 hours to chill and allow flavors to blend. Just before serving, top sangria off with seltzer. You can also strain sangria after chilling to remove lemon zest, if desired.
