Basque sangria

I discovered this cocktail at a friend’s place and I love it, even though I’m not too fond of alcohol…I made it for my birthday party and it had a lot of success, it is fresh and lemony, perfect for a summer night!
For 15 tall cocktail glasses :
– 2 bottles of Basque Txacoli or Champagne
– 6 shots of Cointreau or Grand Marnier
– 6 shots of Whisky single malt
– 1,5L of lemonade
– 4 (organic) lemons cut in slices
– the juice of 2 lemons
– the juice of 2 fresh oranges
– ice, ice, baby!
