Name: Green-Grape Sangria
Cook time: 15 min
Total time: 2 1/4 hr
Yield: Makes 2 quarts
Ingredients: 1 pound green grapes; 2 small Granny Smith apples, coarsely chopped; 1/4 cup packed mint leaves; 3/4 to 1 cup sugar (to taste); 1 (500-mg) vitamin C tablet, crushed to a powder with back of; a spoon (see cooks' note, below); 2 bottles dry white wine (preferably Albariño or Pinot Grigio)

Surely you've had one too many supersweet sangrias whose fruit chunks overpower the (usually mediocre) wine. This version couldn't be more of a contrast, with a refreshing mintiness and subtly aromatic fruit that still allow the crispness of the white wine to come through.

Cooks' notes:

•Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is also available in powdered form at pharmacies and natural foods stores. It will keep the sangria's color bright.
•Sangria can be chilled up to 1 day.
