I'd just make sure you find a recipe to get the taste right. There are tons of white sangria recipes.

Yeah maybe chose in season instead? Don't see why melons are a better choice than berries

^^ I was just about to say the same thing. Have the remembrance wine but be sure to have some good quality white wines available, too. And something for the non-drinkers.

Sounds good! I'd just make sure you had plain wine and/or other options for your guests, which I'm sure you would do anyway.

Sounds fine as long as you thaw them out. Are strawberries in season (see, I never know because we get stuff year-round these days). If they are, add some fresh strawberries since those go well too and call it dessert.

Well since they are frozen it doesn't matter, they were picked while in season and frozen.

Yes, still married. My SO thinks it is gross because those fruits aren't in season.

Is she still married?

Quite odd reaction from your partner. It sounds yummy.

It will be lovely, and a thoughtful remembrance of the shower she had.

Buy the best quality wine you can afford.
I suppose you can't really tell the quality of frozen fruit, unless you've had that particular brand before.

Why does your boyfriend object?

Why would that be a bad idea?

My BFF is turning 41. She said she didn't want a party, but we are having a small gathering that I planned. I need to buy alcohol today and thought about the white wine with peaches and honeydew that we had at her bridal shower a decade ago.
