Do your kids ever feel left out when you're enjoying a "special" drink?
Yes, that absolutely happens in our house. Just about any time my husband or I are enjoying a grown-up beverage, we can count on hearing the same old refrain from our sweet 7-year-old Little Miss H. ...
And I bet you can guess what that same old refrain is.
Yes that's right, it's the age-old, "Oohhhhhhh, I want one!" ... said in the all too familiar slightly-whiny, somewhat begging, sing-songy voice of a 7-year-old. Of course, the answer always has to be an absolute "no."
But not with this Virgin White Sangria.
With this white grape juice-based no-alcohol version of sangria, the answer can be a resounding "yes." Because this tasty concoction allows the kiddos to enjoy a "special" drink, too. And enjoy a stunningly beautiful glass of "special" drink at that!
It's a tasty combination the kiddos will definitely enjoy! ... and I think the grown-ups will, too. The grown-ups at our house certainly did.
Add a beautiful fresh fruit garnish to adorn the glasses and the kids will certainly feel extra special with their "special" drink. No feelings of being left out, here.
So if you're looking for a special beverage treat for your little ones, give Virgin White Sangria a try. It's a tasty, beautiful, no-alcohol-involved version of sangria perfect to make those kiddos feel extra special.
Not to mention, it's Little Miss H. approved.
