SPARKLING STRAWBERRY KIWI SANGRIA RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Hull the strawberries and cut them in half. Peel the kiwis and cut them into slices.
• Combine half of the halved strawberries, the sugar and water in a saucepan and turn the heat up to medium. Bring the mixture up to a boil and then let simmer, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes, or until the strawberries seem like they're about to fall apart. 3.Let cool for a few minutes, and then, using a mesh sieve, strain the strawberry goodness into a bowl. Use a spoon to press the strawberries up against the mesh so you get every last beautiful drop of strawberry syrup. Place the syrup in the refrigerator to cool a bit.
• Combine the kiwi slices and the remaining strawberries in a pitcher, and add the rum, white wine, strawberry syrup, and the juice of three oranges (in a pinch, you could also sub a few splashes of bottled orange juice, or even lemonade, for the fresh orange juice).
• Give it all a good stir and then pop the pitcher in the refrigerator for at least four hours to let all of the flavors come together.
• When you're ready to serve, add around three-quarters of the chilled sparkling wine to the pitcher. Pour into glasses and spoon in fruit, topping each glass off with a bit of the remaining champagne so it's nice a bubbly when you hand the glass to a friend. Cheers!
• Enjoy!
