White Wine Sangria
Ingredients
- 1 bottle white wine (I suggest sauvignon blanc but chardonnay or pinot grigio would work too)
- 1 fresh orange, thinly sliced
- 1 fresh white grapefruit, thinly sliced
- 1 fresh lemon, sliced
- ¼ c. sugar
- 8 oz. sparkling water
Instructions
- Cut your slices of citrus into either halves or quarters (you can leave some whole for visual variety if you want) and place them into the bottom of a clear pitcher.
- Add the sugar and wine to the pitcher and stir for a couple minutes until the sugar is mostly dissolved.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour.
- When you’re ready to serve, remove it from the refrigerator and stir it together to make sure the sugar is completely dissolved.
- In each glass, add a few cubes of ice, then an ounce or so of sparkling water, then the sangria. Enjoy the lusciousness!

WHEN SOME PEOPLE SAY IT:
WHEN I SAY IT:
Autumn Chicken Escabeche with Roasted Apples and Grapes
Servings: 6
Prep time: 15 minutes
Cook time: 30 minutes
Total time: 45 minutes
STUFF
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
1 ½ pounds boneless chicken breasts, thighs or a mix
kosher salt and pepper
1 sweet onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, smashed
2 teaspoons cumin seeds
1 ½ cups white wine
1 ½ cups apple cider
½ cup apple cider vinegar
2 jalapeno or fresno chiles, sliced
2 bay leaves
4 thyme sprigs
1 apple, sliced
1 ½ cups grapes
STEPS
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Heat the olive oil in a large dutch oven or cast iron skillet set over medium high heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. When the oil shimmers, add the chicken and sear on both sides until golden, about 3-5 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the skillet.
To the same skillet, add the onion, garlic, and cumin seeds. Cook, stirring occasionally until the onion is fragrant and the cumin seeds toasted, about 8-10 minutes. Slowly pour in the wine, cider, and apple cider vinegar. Bring to a boil over high heat and then reduce to low. Slide the chicken back into the skillet, skin side up, it should be mostly submerged. Add the chile, bay leaves, and thyme. Sprinkle the apples around the chicken and season with salt and pepper. Transfer to the oven and roast for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven, add the grapes and return to the oven for another 10-15 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
Let the chicken rest 5 minutes and serve with the sauce drizzled over the chicken with the roasted apples and grapes. Enjoy!

May Wine
May Wine is acknowledged as the ritual potion for Walpurgis Night or May Eve.
Woodruff, also known as Queen or Master of the Woods, is the required ingredient.
Although there are complex methods of creating May Wine, at its simplest: steep sprigs of sweet woodruff inwhite wine for several hours. Bruised strawberriesand/orsugar may also be added. Serve and enjoy.
(fromThe Element Encyclopedia of 5,000 Spells by Judika Illes)
“Lord why, Lord why do I wanna die? I'mma get a Maserati just to take my life inside. Baby sip this wine, tell me are you down to ride? Cause when I get a castle I won’t let no one inside.”
