And the margaritas go fantastically with a Mexican recipe like Touchdown Taco Dip, Taco Ring or the Family-Size Burrito. 
Yum!!!
Here's a Sparkling Sangria recipe from Consultant's Corner. It uses non-alc wine, but you could use the real stuff. If you slice the fruit with the Ultimate Mandoline and sprinkle the slices with the sugar, they'll release their juice in about 10 minutes, then you can add the wine.
Sparkling Sangria
1 bottle (25.4 ounces) non-alcoholic red wine, chilled
1/4 cup sugar
1 orange
1 lemon
1 lime
2 cups lemon-lime flavored carbonated soda, chilled (Sprite or 7-Up, although Squirt is good, too)
1. Open wine bottle using Wine Bottle Opener. Pour wine into Quick-Stir® Pitcher; add sugar. Plunge until well mixed.
2. Slice fruit with Utility Knife; add to wine mixture. Refrigerate 3-4 hours to allow flavors to blend.
3. Add carbonated soda; plunge to mix. Serve immediately.
Yield: 6 servings
Nutrients per serving: (1 cup): Calories 70, Total Fat 0 g, Saturated Fat 0 g, Cholesterol 0 mg, Carbohydrate 18 g, Protein less than 1 g, Sodium 20 mg, Fiber 0 g
Cook’s Tips: Recipe can be easily doubled.
