THE BEST SANGRIA



The Best Sangria image

The longer sangria sits before drinking, the more smooth and mellow it will taste. A full day is best, but if that's impossible, give it an absolute minimum of two hours to sit. Use large, heavy, juicy oranges and lemons for the best flavor. Doubling or tripling the recipe is fine, but you'll have to switch to a large punch bowl in place of the pitcher.

THE VERY BEST SANGRIA



The Very Best Sangria image

There is a popular Spanish restaurant in town where they are known for their sangria. After years of downing this delicious and potent quaff, I had to have the recipe. You may make this with either red or white wine. Do not leave out the cinnamon. Add sugar to your likeness. Personally, I don't like it too sweet. Careful... This packs a punch on those unsuspecting.

  • Use a variety of fruits: Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of fruits. Some popular choices include oranges, lemons, limes, grapes, strawberries, and peaches.
  • Cut the fruit into small pieces: This will help the fruit release its flavor into the sangria.

  • Add a little sweetness: If you like your sangria on the sweeter side, you can add a little sugar or honey.
  • Let the sangria chill: Sangria is best served chilled. Let it chill for at least an hour before serving.
  • Garnish with fresh fruit: When you're ready to serve the sangria, garnish it with fresh fruit slices or a sprig of mint.
