You could name a son John Holliday and call him Doc. Didn't one of the Buffistas have a friend who named their child Huckleberry for the line in Tombstone?

The BF and I have taken to barking out "Swengin" Wu-style at each other at odd moments. We both find this way more amusing than it has any right to be.
Does anyone here ever make their own sangria?
If so, what do you put in it. I've been wanting some, and have googled some recipes, but I trust the Buffista hive-palate, more.
The name discussion reminds me, does anyone remember and have the link for the thing where you can enter a name, and then it shows you on a graph the name's popularity throughout the years? I thought I bookmarked it but apparently not.
But John Henry died with a hammer in his hand.
ZOMG, that song just came up on my iTunes. Freaky. Or notsomuch.
Cindy, at the restaurant, we use Chianti, brown sugar, apples, oranges, cinnamon sticks, and lemons. We also make white sangria - white wine (I misremember, but not Chardonnay - sweeter), apples, oranges, lemons, limes, cinnamon sticks, and cloves. It is Teh Yum.

I made some white sangria not too long ago. I put apple brandy, white rioja wine, apples, pears, and peaches in it. It was Yum.
Cindy, I've never made alcoholic sangria, but I sort-of remember a recipe for a non-alcoholic version that went over well when I was in high school. Even made it for a class party or two.
Take one 2-liter bottle of 7-Up. Add one can (is it 64 ounces? anyway, one of the big cans) of Hawaiian Punch. Cut up fruit to taste (oranges work well, and so surprisingly do apples), toss in. Chill well.
I may be getting the proportions wrong, but it's in that neighborhood.
Thanks, ita.
