From one of Jenn's friends. Jenn says
that even though she does not really like wine, she liked this recipe. |

Preparation Notes |
|
Fruit - 3 types
- see notes |
- Cut up a variation of 3 different types of fruit
(anything from apples, oranges, grapes, strawberries, nectarines, peaches).
If using whole fruit, I typically cut up 3 whole pieces (3 apples, 3
oranges, etc), and i eyeball the "pieces" of fruit, such as strawberries and
grapes.
- Marinate the fruit in light rum overnight.
- Combine 1 1/3 rd cups of water with 1/2 cup sugar
(or Splenda!), 4 cinnamon sticks, and a handful of fresh mint leaves.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, and let simmer for 5
minutes.
- Remove from heat and allow the mixture to cool
completely (depending on time constraints, sometimes this requires putting
it in the fridge for a bit!).
- Combine 1 bottle of the cheapest white wine you
can find (seriously, the mixture makes ANY bottle of wine taste good!) with
the sugar mixture, fruit, and another handful of fresh mint leaves.
- Add a few cups of sprite.
- Voila!
