Boozy Orange Sangria

This boozy cocktail becomes a fruity refreshing experience combining red wine, vodka and orange syrup. Not a traditional sangria at all BUT dare I say "easy sangria"?! Especially if you have the confit oranges on hand already! The vodka provides a strong foundation, while the red wine adds depth and richness.  Orange syrup introduces a burst of citrusy sweetness, balancing the bold flavors of the spirits. Make sure to choose a wine you love, I prefer a pinot noir or cabernet sauvignon.

1 oz vodka
3 oz red wine
1 oz orange syrup
