Let’s explore how you can make this refreshing drink at home and why ours is a must-try when you visit us.
Ingredients for the Best Sangria
Creating the perfect sangria involves selecting the best ingredients. Here’s what you’ll need:
- Red Wine: Choose a good quality, fruity red wine such as Tempranillo or Garnacha. These Spanish wines add an authentic flavor.
- Fresh Fruits: Oranges, lemons, and apples are classic choices. You can also add berries, peaches, or pineapples for extra flavor.
- Sweetener: Sugar or simple syrup to taste. Adjust the sweetness based on your preference.
- Spirits: A splash of brandy or orange liqueur enhances the depth of flavor.
- Sparkling Water: Adds a refreshing fizz to the sangria.
- Spices: A cinnamon stick or a few cloves can add a subtle warmth and complexity.
How to Make Sangria
Follow these simple steps to create the best sangria:
- Prepare the Fruits: Slice the oranges, lemons, and apples. Place them in a large pitcher.
- Add the Sweetener: Sprinkle sugar over the fruits. Gently muddle the mixture to release the fruit juices and dissolve the sugar.
- Pour the Wine: Add the red wine to the pitcher, followed by the brandy or orange liqueur.
- Mix and Chill: Stir the mixture well, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. This allows the flavors to meld together.
- Finish and Serve: Just before serving, add the sparkling water to the pitcher. Stir gently and pour into glasses filled with ice. Garnish with additional fruit slices if desired.
