My Love for Charles Shaw

 It all started when I moved to Los Angeles and bought my first bottle of wine from Trader Joe's.  I discovered that really good wine does not need to cost a lot.  Charles Shaw, for those of you who are not familiar, is also known as Two-Buck Chuck.  Ahem...that's right! It only costs $1.99 and you can buy it at any Trader Joe's store.  Now, it's not your fancy Chateau Latour, but it is definitely a great tasting wine for your buck.  Yesterday, my friend Brooke and I decided to do an impromptu white sangria.  The results...magnificent taste worth a million bucks! ;)

Ingredients:
2 Bottles of Charles Shaw Sauvignon Blanc
Sparkling mineral water
Vodka
Passion Fruit Juice
And a splash of Champagne to top it off!
Fruit- pears, peaches, strawberries, melon, and grapes.

Viola!!! White great tasting sangria for a very low cost!
Enjoy :)
