What is sangria

Sangria is an alcoholic beverage. It is usually made with red wine, brandy and other ingredients, such as orange juice, lemon or lime juice. Because sangria is also considered a punch, its ingredient list also includes chopped fruit, citrus and/or berries. Often, it’s served mixed with carbonated beverages, such as club soda, citrus soda pop, etc. Sangria has Spanish origins.

This red sangria with mixed berries is a crowd-pleasing cocktail, just like white sangria with peaches and apples.   It’s so easy to make, just throw all the ingredients together (except for carbonated liquid which you will add when serving) and refrigerate for 4 or up to 24 hours!

Tips

  • If you like your sangria on the sweet side, add sweetener. Use 1/3 cup sugar – it should be dissolved in a small amount of hot water (1/4 cup), cooled, and added to sangria. You can also use honey or agave to sweeten your sangria.
  • Don’t have orange juice? Use peach juice, mango juice or pear juice.
  • When making sangria with fruit, make sure you allow enough time for fruit to soak. Plan accordingly. Add all the sangria ingredients together (except for carbonated liquid which you will add when serving) and refrigerate for 4 or up to 24 hours!
