Pina Colada Sangria
We've tried mimosa sangria and margarita sangria -- and now it's time to try some pina colada sangria. With crushed pineapple, moscato, and coconut rum, this is the perfect recipe for an island getaway -- queue up "The Pina Colada Song," and you're good to go.

Ingredients:
2 750 ml bottles of moscato
1 20 oz can of crushed pineapple, juice and pineapple
1 1/2 cups coconut rum (such as Malibu)


Directions:
Combine all the ingredients in a large pitcher . Refrigerate overnight, and serve chilled.

Strawberry Pomegranate Sangria
You know all the heart-health benefits of pomegranates? Well, mix that with the resveratrol in red wine, and you've got yourself a summer sangria recipe you don't have to feel guilty about. Not too guilty, anyway.

Ingredients:
1 lb strawberries, sliced, plus more for garnish
Arils (the seeds) from 1 pomegranate
2 (750ml) bottles red wine
2 cups pomegranate juice
Club soda, to taste

Directions:
Place the sliced strawberries and arils in a large pitcher. Add wine and pomegranate juice. Allow to sit in the refrigerator for six to 24 hours. Taste; if you'd like it to be sweeter, add 1-2 tablespoons granulated sugar, honey or agave.
Pour the sangria with fruit into glasses and add a splash of club soda to each glass (this unsweetened fizz is excellent with the sangria!). Garnish with a strawberry, if desired. Feel free to add ice to your glasses of sangria. Do not add ice directly to the pitcher -- this waters the sangria down. Which, clearly, we don't want.
