Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh oranges. If you don't have fresh oranges, you can use frozen or canned orange juice. However, fresh oranges will give the sangria a more vibrant flavor.
  • To make the sangria ahead of time, prepare it up to 24 hours in advance. This will allow the flavors to meld together and develop.
  • If you want to make a non-alcoholic version of the sangria, simply omit the wine and add more orange juice or sparkling water.
  • Garnish the sangria with fresh orange slices, cranberries, or mint leaves for a festive touch.
  • Serve the sangria chilled over ice. It's a perfect drink for a party or a summer gathering.
