Wine-Up

Time for a super simple yummy drink recipe

I go to a restaurant in Milwaukee with family members and love one of their drinks.  It's simply red sangria.  Well it's wine so I went to the store over the holidays and found fruity red sangria wine.  Awesome, right?  Yeah, not so much.  It was cheap wine and it was ok but it certainly wasn't the red sangria at the restaurant.  Come to find out their red sangria has all sorts of other ingredients that makes it so yummy good.  Hmmm, who knew?  So, now I still have this leftover bottle of red wine and I hate to throw money away but I really don't like it and I don't want to just hang onto it until it turns to vinegar (although I'm intrigued by that process....)  Went to a bar in town called Fat Jacks, was it called Fat Jacks???  Fat something or Jack something or something Fat or something Jack.  Anyhow the atmosphere was really nice but the drinks SUCKED!  I wanted a bloody mary.  It was the worst bloody mary in the history of bloody marys!  My aunt doesn't drink but decided she'd like a wine cooler.  Well they didn't have wine coolers so they made this drink for her and she hated it!  I took a sip and I really liked it and traded her the icky bloody mary for the icky wine cooler.  Now I can make my own!

Fruity red sangria cheap wine (chilled)
7up (chilled)

Chill both your wine and can of 7up.  Fill super big wine glass with can of 7up.  Fill remaining space in super big wine glass with fruity red sangria cheap wine.  Viola!  Drink up.  Jeepers this is good!
