Watermelon Sangria


I had my fiance's birthday party this past weekend and he loves sangria. I found this recipe and the watermelon made it feel very summery. I actually preferred the other lemonade sangria I made last year more than this one but if you like watermelon, you'll LOVE this drink. 

Ingredients:
2 pounds seedless watermelon, peeled and cubed, plus 1/2 pound watermelon cut into balls with a melon baller and skewered on picks
1 bottle sauvignon blanc
6 oz vodka
4 oz triple sec
2 oz simple syrup
2 oz lime juice
6 oz club soda
Ice


 Directions:
1. In a blender, puree the watermelon cubes and vodka. Pour through a fine strainer into a pitcher. 

2. Add the white wine, vodka, triple sec, simple syrup and lime juice. Stir and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. When ready to serve stir again and add club soda. Pour the sangria into ice-filled white wine glasses and garnish with the skewered watermelon balls.
