ABOUT DRY ICE:
Dry ice is easy to find at most supermarkets across the country, and it’s inexpensive. It’s typically kept in the meat or deli section. Many party stores have it around Halloween. No special permits; anyone 18 or older can purchase it. Typically it comes in solid blocks. Make sure it is food grade. Prices range from $1.50-$3.50 a pound.
You will need two big bowls for the sangria. The biggest for the dry ice, the smaller for the punch. Do not use fancy expensive bowls. Save the crystal for another occasion!
