Spicy Blackberry Sangria
As I mentioned in my Mabon post, Blackberries and wine are essential elements for this celebration. I like to serve this with a simple cheese, fruit, and bread platter. This beverage is also very nice to serve throughout the Autumn and Winter seasons.
Spicy Blackberry Sangria
You will love to sip and share this beverage. I make this sangria during Mabon and have it around up until Samhain. You can control the spice of this beverage with how much of the pepper up put in. On a chilly autumn night, this is a great beverage for warming you completely.
