Red Sangria Winesicles
Ingredients
- 1 cup chopped fruit (oranges, apples, grapes and blackberries work well)
- ¾ cup your favorite red wine (Tempranillo, Malbec, and Garnacha are good bets)
- ¾ cup orange juice
- ¼ cup fresh-squeezed lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
Fill a small bowl with chopped fruit. Pour wine over fruit and let soak for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, heat a small saucepan on the stove top over medium heat. Add orange juice, lemon juice and sugar and stir until sugar is dissolved, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature. Pour fruit-wine mixture over a strainer into a large spouted measuring cup and reserve the fruit. Pour the orange-lemon simple syrup over the strainer into the measuring cup, as well. Divide reserved fruit among ice pop pouches. Pour mixture into several ice pop pouches. Freeze popsicles for at least 8 hours before serving.
