Steps:

• In a 4-cup measure, add the red wine, mango nectar, and brandy. Stir to combine.
• Blend the lime juice, superfine sugar, tequila, Triple Sec, and ice together in a blender until smooth. You may need to add more ice to make is slushy.

MAMA NEELY'S BAKED BEANS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat the oil in a Dutch oven set over medium-high heat. Once it's hot, toss in the onion and garlic, and sauté until the onion is tender, about 3 or 4 minutes. Add the sausage, and continue to cook until the meat has browned, about 4 minutes more. Stir in the pork and beans, ketchup, molasses, sugar, vinegar, mustard, and hot sauce. Bring the beans up to a simmer, then put in the hot oven for 45 minutes, uncovered, until the mixture is bubbly and thick.

EASY SANGRIA

Steps:

• Put the chopped fruit in a bowl and sprinkle over the sugar and cinnamon, then stir to coat. Cover and leave to macerate in the fridge for at least 1 hr, or ideally overnight.
• Fill a large jug with ice. Stir the macerated fruit mixture to ensure the sugar is dissolved, then tip into the jug with the wine and brandy. Stir, then top up with the sparkling water and serve.

SANGRIA! SANGRIA!

Steps:

• In a large pitcher or bowl, mix together the brandy, lemon juice, lemonade concentrate, orange juice, red wine, triple sec, and sugar. Float slices of lemon, orange and lime, and maraschino cherries in the mixture. Refrigerate overnight for best flavor. For a fizzy sangria, add club soda just before serving.
