Welcome to my food blog.

ROSE SANGRIA WITH PEACH & ORANGE BLOSSOM VODKA WITH STRAWBERRIES

Everybody loves a refreshing spring/summer drink. Especially when a sangria can always be in season.

I used a peach and orange blossom vodka for this mixture with a smooth rose.

I normally gravitate towards a lighter sangria, like white wine as a base, but rosé is too smooth to not have in the sangria wheelhouse of drinks.

Strawberries are in full swing, so I wanted to pair a bunch of strawberry flavor with a smooth peach vodka.
