Prior to that, I drank it perhaps five times in my whole life. And for some reason Sangria called out to me a bunch of years ago; not white wine, beer, or any other beverage that I might have enjoyed during the hot days of summer.\u00a0 Regardless, something told me that that summer was going to be a Sangria summer. I had a feeling that is was going to be a very hot summer and we were going to be swimming in the pond or hanging out on the porch, grilling and a nice cold beverage was going to be in order. \u00a0Therefore, I set out to create the best Sangria ever.

I did adapt it over the course of the summer, but the basic recipe is <a title=\"Sangria recipe\" href=\"http:\/\/www.foodnetwork.com\/recipes\/emeril-lagasse\/sangria-recipe4\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Emeril\u2019s<\/a>.
