Sangria is known to be the most popular and famous Spanish drink served throughout Spain. Traditionally sangria, a sugared wine, is made with red wine, chopped fruit and other ingredients such as brandy or orange juice. It can be sweetened with sugar and also contain sparkling water or soda. There are many variations of Sangria, including Rose Sangria, Sangria Blanca and even trendy Sangria Slushies. The combinations of wines, liqueurs, juices, fruits, sparkling waters and sodas available to make a pitcher of Sangria are endless. Typically sangria is served during the summer months in both Spain and Portugal but you can enjoy it all year long, especially with our winter Cranberry Sangria recipe!
