Frisk Prickly Riesling

While I do not consider myself a wine connoisseur in any way, I have to share my new favorite wine with the world.  A few months ago, my friend introduced me to Frisk Prickly Riesling, and after just one glass, I knew I had found my white wine soul mate.

Made in Australia, Frisk Prickly is a delicious, semi-sweet variety of citrus flavors with a bubbly zing.  It is dangerously delicious and refreshing, and under 12 dollars a bottle!  Y'all know how much I enjoy making Sangria, and I've decided that my next batch of white sangria will feature this wine.  I'm thinking it will blend nicely with my go-to Sangria flavors of lemon, grapefruit, raspberry, and orange. 

I encourage anyone who enjoys Riesling to pick up a bottle of this magical beverage the next time you visit a liquor store.  You'll be hooked!

I think I foresee leopard print nails in the future...

Recently I had a few friends over for drinks and I proudly wore this new glamorously fierce shirt:


That is my cherished Sangria Goblet I'm posing with. I never make Sangria without it.  And my friends give me a hard time for my love of animal prints, but c'mon? This shirt is amazing and I didn't spill a drop of delicious sangria on it.  Tonight's Sangria recipe included: a bottle of red wine (any blend will do but I prefer a Chianti or Pinot Noir), a few cups of Ginger Ale, a sliced orange, 2 squeezed limes, lemon juice, and a splash of grapefruit juice.  I like my sangrias more tart than sweet, but you can play with the ratios to find a flavor that suits you.

After this wild ensemble, there may be some animal print manis in my near future. Rawr.
