Ingredients

1 bottle white wine, preferably Sauvignon Blanc, approximately 3 cups
2/3 cup Elderflower liqueur (available at Beverages & More, and most local wine stores)
2 cups sparkling water
1 Tbsp + 2 1/4 tsp Truvia™ natural sweetener spoonable*
½ large lemon, sliced into ¼” circles
1 small orange, sliced into ¼” circles
2/3 cup red flame or green grapes, sliced in half

* or 6 packets Truvia™ natural sweetener

Preparation

In a drinks pitcher, stir together the white wine, elderflower liquer, and Truvia™ natural sweetener. Add in the fruit. Refrigerate for 1 hour, or up to overnight, so the fruit absorbs some of the flavors. Right before serving, stir the drink and add in the sparkling water.
