How to Make an Easy Red Sangria Recipe

There are a few key ingredients in a classic red sangria recipe: wine, fruit, a sweetener, and optional brandy. For this easy red sangria recipe, we’ll use a bottle of Spanish red wine, like a Rioja or Garnacha. You can also use a fruity Californian Zinfandel or Merlot. You’ll also need an orange, a lemon, and a lime. We like to use a sugar cane syrup or honey as our sweetener, but you could also use simple syrup or even sugar. And finally, we’ll add a splash of brandy for extra depth of flavor.

To make the sangria, start by adding the wine to a large pitcher. Then, cut the citrus fruit into thin slices and add to the wine. Next, add the sugar cane syrup or honey and stir to combine. If you’re using sugar, you’ll need to add a little water to help it dissolve. Finally, add the brandy and give the sangria a final stir.

At this point, you can either serve the sangria right away or refrigerate for an hour or two to allow the flavors to meld. If you’re serving the sangria right away, add some ice cubes to each glass. If you’re chilling the sangria, add the ice cubes just before serving.

To garnish, we like to add a few extra slices of citrus fruit and/or some fresh berries. This easy red sangria recipe is the perfect summertime cocktail!.Learn more
