Drunken fruit

Fruit and alcohol are made for each other. Not those syrupy fruit flavorings on plastic-bottled vodka—real fruit, real alcohol. And perhaps the best way to enjoy them together is in a big glass of freshly prepared sangria, given just enough time for the fruit to soak up that alcoholic goodness. Now that it's summer, how nice it is to know that this sort of drink is exactly what you can find at Karma Brew, with its sangria on display in a clear pitcher, moscato steeping in whatever fresh fruit is on hand. (A recent sample had grapes, kiwis, peaches and strawberries.) It even comes with a light dash of cinnamon and a fork to dig out the alcohol-dense fruity bits. A refreshing drink and a snack in one—and for $5, it's a pretty sweet deal. 1530 16th Street, www.karmabrews.com
