Likely way more vodka Here’s what we made:
1 1/2 cups of rum (I did it half Black Seal and half Tortuga Gold (we’re raging rummies))
1/2 cup sugar
1 shot of lime juice
1 shot lemon juice
(those 2 mimic the juice content of a whole lime and a whole lemon…I needed to drink; not squeeze fruit)
1 cup orange juice
750ml red wine

Chill, drink, fall down a lot

White Sangria:
1/4 cup vodka
1/4 cup peach schnapps
1/4 cup peach grape juice (thanks to our 5 year old daughter, we have this in the house)
2 oz lemon juice
750ml of cheap pinot grigio

This one needs tinkering. Likely way more vodka
