I pretty much always do sangria at my shows. You can use the measureing cups to measure out the ingredents, use one of the knives to cut some fruit, the apple wedger for the apples, the citrus press for the lime juice/lemon juice. It's all so easy!
For mine (in the 2 quart pitcher) i just use one bottle of the cheap trader joes wine in a red, 1 can sprite, 1/3 cup oj, jusice from one lemon and one lime, 1/3 cup triple sec, and 1/3 cup of either peach, cherry or pomagrante brandy.
and i only use apples, and peaches and oranges.
The recipe shows off a lot of prodcuts and gets the guests drinking hehehe
