Grab the corkscrew! It\u2019s time to liven up your wine intake<\/a> with a side of some vitamin- and mineral-packed produce. While moderate vino sipping (up to one glass a day) has been linked to a healthier heart, stronger bones, lower blood sugar and more, fruit and veggie<\/a> intake also lowers your risk of disease. So mix the two together and you have a match made in taste bud-satisfying, happy hour-enhancing and health-boosting heaven. Low in sugar yet high in Instagram-ability, these stir-and-serve sangria recipes will be the star of your next party<\/a> (or Friday Netflix night).<\/p>\n

7. Frozen Raspberry Peach Sangria<\/a><\/h3>\n

There\u2019s a good reason why fros\u00e9 is having a moment: It\u2019s like a grown-up version of the slushy. You don\u2019t need to feel guilty about treating yourself to this icy drink, though. It\u2019s sweetened with just a hint of agave nectar. Blend it up without sweetener, then try a sample, and add only as much as you need to balance the flavors.
