It is Christmas season, do you have your decorations up? I love turning on Christmas tunes and getting all my decor out. I would love it even more if I was able to enjoy this Christmas cocktail. Last year I treated you to these two Christmas cocktails, so this year I decided to give you another recipe.
When I was in LA for Thanksgiving and had lots of taste testers I decided to make this Christmas sangria. I wasn't planning on adding vodka, but a relative suggested it and I thought what a great idea. The boozier the better right? Unfortunately, I was unable to try this but the taste testers approved. I loved it cause of the beauty. This is the prettiest Christmas drink I've ever seen. Next year you better believe I will be making this drink again.
