Pink Pomegranate-Raspberry Sangria

Lots of pictures, but nothing going on here today that's worth writing about. I wish I had something interesting to report.
I wish I had some pancakes or waffles. I never get to eat them. Maybe peanut butter waffles. Is that possible? Or waffles with crushed up Butterfingers in them. Somebody work on that idea and report back to me.

The other night I was in a celebratory mood, and decided to make a pitcher of sangria. Oh, and later I went to see The Dark Knight, and discovered it's the longest movie ever made. Batman was really raspy in the movie. I had no idea he was a smoker.
But yeah, that Christian Bale is a piece of eye candy. I don't care what he "did" ...I could stare at him for hours. (And I did, because this movie was sooo long!)
And Heath Ledger was really, really good. :(


This is the stuff you need. It's cheap and delicious.

Where was I...so, this sangria is really, really good, too. It's made with wine, raspberry-ginger ale, pomegranate schnapps and raspberries. But it will sneak up on you - just a warning. It's rather potent. You'll find yourself behaving in ways you wouldn't imagine......



This is a great cocktail for parties where you don't know the people very well.

I'm sending this to Heather, from Diary of a Fanatic Foodie. She's hosting a cocktail event, where you make a drink, featuring seasonal produce. I used fresh raspberries in mine, so I guess that works. I wish I had some fresh mint to put in it.
