      instructions Place fruit and wine in a large bowl and allow to chill in the fridge overnight. Strain fruit from wine and set aside. Place 1 cup of red wine in a large heat proof bowl and sprinkle gelatin over surface and allow to bloom for 3 to 4 minutes.

    • 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
      1 1/2 cups White Grape Juice (chilled)
      1/2 cup fresh squeezed Lemon Juice (chilled)
      instructions Meanwhile, bring remaining wine to a boil in a sauce pot. Reduce to a simmer, and then reduce to 2 cups, about 10 minutes. Stir in the sugar until dissolved. Pour boiling wine over the bloomed gelatin and stir to combine. Pour in the chilled grape and lemon juices and stir. Place the mixture into the refrigerator and allow to chill for 1 hour or until it reaches a pudding or curd like consistency. Remove from fridge and whisk. Ladle some of the mixture into 6 stemless glasses. Push some of the prepared fruit into the layer. Top with another layer of the sangria mixture and push more fruit into this layer.

      ingredients
    •       
      1 1/2-2 cups Whipped Cream     
    • instructions Place the glasses into the fridge and allow to chill for 1 to 2 hours or until fully set. Remove from fridge. Garnish with whipped cream and a spring of mint.

      Helpful Tips:1. Let the fruit marinate in wine over night.
      2. Whisk the mixture before it completely sets to ensure it sets evenly.
      3. Letting the gelatin partially set allows you to suspend the stone fruit between two layers before it completely sets.
      4. Making individual portions allows the gelatin to set faster.
