Palm Wine & Nunum Sangria

If you follow my instagram you know I love me some good wine. I always have wine at home. I also love palm wine and I was recently gifted a gallon so I figured why not combine two of my favorite things. I have a lot of nunum aka scent leaf which happens to be one of my favorite herbs. It’s fragrant and a close relative of basil. It is more citrusy than regular basil, almost like if basil, akokob3sa (African basil ) , rosemary and thyme had a baby. That’s what it smells like. It’s beautiful.

Recipe 6 servings

what you need

3 cups palm wine

3 cups chardonay

1 cup vodka

1 cup soda water

1 lemon, thinly sliced

1 star fruit, thinly sliced (substitute with lemon or orange)

2 oranges, cut into squares 

1 cup nunum or more

Directions

Place all the ingredients in a pitcher. Stir to combine and place in the fridge for at least a day. 3 days is perfect. The nunum might discolor after a day so remove it before serving and replace with fresh nunnum leafs.
