There’s nothing like being served ice cold wine overflowing with slices of ripe fruit after breaking a sweat on the dance floor - that’s the magic behind irresistible Spanish Sangria. Not only is it easy to make, but seeing a punch bowl filled with the sweet stuff means that sizzling spring nights are here. However, drinking the same recipe year after year can get as exciting as chugging warm beer. Tonight, why not replace wine with tequila instead? The Tequila Sunrise Punch is a yummy Mexican concoction that’s similar to Spanish Sangria, except it isn’t too fruity or girly. It’s a new spring elixir that everyone can enjoy. Created by celebrity chef Ingrid Hoffmann, the Tequila Sunrise Punch is zesty, oh so refreshing, and a delicious heat buster that you’ll want to drink every weekend. Best of all, it will keep you looking and feeling cool way past Sunday afternoon.
