Labor Day Recipes

Labor Day weekend is almost here and I am sure everyone is attending some type of BBQ or party! If you are hosting or wanting to bring something to a party, here are some recipes for these amazing drinks above. My sister-in-law had a party Sunday and had these drinks. We have been drinking Sangrias and Margaritas the last few nights! Doesn't fit into our diet, but they are so yummy we can't get enough of them. Spice up the drinks by adding fruit kabobs! If you don't have time to make these drinks grab some nice craft beer. No matter what you drink or eat, we hope you enjoy your weekend with your friends and family. -M

Sangrias
1 bottle of Pinot Noir (any red wine you prefer)
8 oz of Peach Schnapps or Triple Sec
2 oranges sliced 
Other fruit of choice
(we have tried lemons, limes, apples, and raspberries)


Margaritas
2 Cups of Tequila
2 Tsp Margarita Salt
1 2 Liter Diet 7-Up
2 Containers of Crystal Light Lemonade
2 Limes
(We added slices of lemons as seen in picture above!)


PS: I am not a big Margarita fan, but I could drink this all the time! It doesn't have that bitter sour mix taste!
