CUBAN SANGRIA

• Place the cut fruit pieces into a large cooler (we buy the Styrofoam disposable coolers with the lid).
• Pour the full contents of the red wine and rum over the fresh fruit, mixing and stirring.
• Cover the cooler and let sit for at least 24 hours in a dark cool place.
• (This is the hard part.).
• Serve the mixture by spooning out with a ladle into cups with the fruit and liquid.
