This summer drink is from Southern Living last year, in July of 2008. It's reminiscent of a fruity sangria but made with cranberry juice and mineral water, even kids can enjoy. If you choose, make it with champagne and call it an 'adult' refresher.
Cranberry Spritzers
(12-ounce) cans frozen cranberry juice concentrate, thawed and undiluted
4 lemon slices
4 orange slices
4 lime slices
2 (23-ounce) bottles orange-flavored sparkling mineral water, chilled*
Garnish: lemon slices
Combine first 4 ingredients in a large pitcher; cover and chill 8 hours or overnight. Remove fruit with a slotted spoon, and discard. Stir mineral water into cranberry juice. Garnish with lemon slices, if desired. 2 (750-milliliter) bottles chilled champagne may be substituted for sparkling mineral water.
