German Ananas-Mango-Bowle (Pineapple Mango Wine Punch)
"Bowle is a German summer fruit & wine punch. There are many versions of Bowle. This version relies on tropical fruits and Madeira to give it a unique taste. Bowle is served with clear picks to spear the wine-soaked fruit out of each glass. Plan ahead - the fruit needs to soak several hours before your guests arrive. Translated directly from the German version I found in "Sommerfeste" magazine."

WOW! Strong and wonderful! I used White Zinfadel for the wine. I really think my favorite part was the pineapple chunks soaked in the wine punch, and I think I got tipsy on them alone :-) My friends really loved it also, thought it was strong so next time we will have to watch the amount we drink.
