Over the weekend, I had the great pleasure of having a Mother-Daughter day with my 23 year-old daughter, Ashleigh.  We had a wonderful massage and afterward, I wanted us to have a special “treat” knowing that we would be unwinding later on my southern front porch.

I happened to have quite a bit of fruit in the refrigerator and I always have Chardonnay so I thought what could I create?  A white wine sangria, of course!  But as I searched online, most recipes called for some type of fruity liqueur which I did not have and I was really NOT  in the mood for a trip to the liquor store so I checked to see what I could possible substitute…and then I saw it…Kinky Liqueur!

Now, I first experienced Kinky Liqueur when my great friend, Kris Besola, brought it to my Tennessee-Florida football party last fall.  I am not usually one to like anything other that my Chardonnay or a good bloody mary but this tasted so light and was a nice fruity change without being overly sweet!  Surely, this would be good in my white wine sangria?  There are several fruity types of Kinky but my favorite is the one with Passion Fruit and Blood Oranges.  Now, I was really motivated to create my new “Kinky White Wine Sangria”!

Kinky White Wine Sangria – Serves 6

Ingredients

• 5 cups of white wine (I used Chardonnay but use your favorite)
• 2 cups of Kinky liqueur
• 1 cup of peach nectar*
• 1 cup of mango nectar*
• 1 cup of orange juice
• 2 peaches, peeled and sliced
• 2 oranges, sliced
• 1 lemon, sliced
• 1 pint of blackberries
• 1 pint, of strawberries sliced

*You can find small cans of different types of fruit nectar in the International Section of any supermarket

Directions

Combine all ingredients and refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving…the longer the better!

Serve in your favorite glass and enjoy!

Bottom Line:

I am a genius!  Ha, ha…Kidding!  This was probably the best fruity drink I have ever tasted and Ashleigh agreed!  I will definitely be making this often this summer and I can’t wait to hear what you think of it, too!  Try using your favorite fruits to mix up the flavors and share your results!  I am Personal Chef, Frankie Pitt, and I want you to “Keep on Drinking”..ha, ha!
