Tequila Sangria

Summertime is a great time to try fun, colorful cocktails. I recently tried this one and it was delicious! It's not too sweet, so if you need something cool and refreshing I highly recommend this one.
Tequila Sangria
Ingredients:
2 oranges
3 limes
1/4 cup sugar- I will substitute with Splenda or Stevia
6 cups ice
1 (10 ounce) bag frozen raspberries
1 cup silver tequila
1/2 cup triple sec
1 bottle of champagne
4 cups chilled lemon lime soda
Directions:
1. Juice one orange and two limes to measure 1/4 cup juice each. Combine juices and sugar in a microwavable bowl. Microwave on high for 2-3 minutes or until sugar is dissolved. Thinly slice remaining orange and lime.
2. Add ice, juice mixture, orange and lime slices, raspberries, tequila and triple sec in a pitcher and stir. Add champagne and soda, stir gently and serve!
Yield: 12 servings
