THE BEST RED OR WHITE SANGRIA
Summer is here! And cool refreshing drinks are the best - light and fresh and fruity!
I'm not a big wine drinker, but I do love a great Sangria. I have only had Red Sangria's, but if you try the White Sangria - let me know how you liked it!
The only sangria recipe you need. This sangria recipe is simple, easy and truly the best Red Sangria recipe that you will make yourself!
Servings: 4 Calories
Makes 4 servings
INGREDIENTS:
- 1 bottle Spanish red wine
- 1 cup orange juice
- 1/3 cup brandy
- 1/3-1/2 cup triple sec start with 1/3 and add more if you’d like– triple sec is key!
- 4 to 6 tbsp raw sugar
- 1 apple 1 orange, 1 mango, 1/2 cup blackberries, 1/2 cup blueberries & 1/2 cup strawberries
Instructions
- Chop up all of your fruit and set aside
- Pour in your wine, orange juice, triple sec & brandy. Give it a good stir. Then add in the amount of raw sugar you prefer I'd start with 4 tbsp. Stir for about 1 minute to get it dissolved.
- Add in your fruit, give it another stir for about 1 minute. Cover and place in refrigerator for at least 6 hours. Best to let it sit over night and then enjoy!
- Keep in fridge for up to 5 days in an air tight container like a mason jar.
Feel free to add whatever combination of fruit you’d like!
Sangria is best served chill. So after making your batch of The Best Red or White Sangria, place it in the fridge for at-least 6 hours, but for best results over night. Then you will want to keep it in the refrigerator until serving.
Put ice cubes in the glasses, add sangria soaked fruit over the ice, then pour the sangria over it! Garnish with a orange slice on the side and you are good to go!
Types of glasses that are great for sangria: wine glasses are perfect– stemless or stem. A fun twist is putting them in mason jars, adds a great trendy look to the party, or you could go with tall tumbler glasses.
