Atria's Summer Sangria

Enjoying a refreshing Sangria at the downstairs bar in Atria, and now you can make your own at home!

It's getting hot in here! Today I'm sharing with you a recipe that not only will chill you to the core, but will have you craving more! (Did I just rhyme? Sorry.) The fantastic thing is that you can make this at home and enjoy with friends and family, but if it's too hot to even do this, head on down to Atria on Main Street in Edgartown and have them serve you a glass (or a pitcher!)
