Thinking of Drinking: Limoncello Sangria

Photo by Bryn Wallace
Friday rolls around and I'm still thinking of drinking.  Give your Sangria recipe some lemon zing by adding a little Ventura Limoncello to the drink.  This Limoncello Sangria was featured on Capital Cooking's Under the Tuscan Stars episode.  Enjoy this light and refreshing cocktail this weekend!

Limoncello Sangria
 
1 bottle of White Wine
1 cup chilled Ventura Limoncello 

1/4 cup orange juice
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/8 tsp. vanilla extract
1 cinnamon stick
1  Lemon and Orange, sliced
 
 
Mix in a large punch bowl.  Chill and serve.

Something citrusy works best. Maybe a Pinot Grigio or Savignon Blanc
