Whats In Sangria

Answer 3

Sangria is typically a mix of red wine, spirits, Casera/Lemonade and fresh fruits, served over ice. There are numerious variations and every restaurant has it's own recipie. Sangria is great at parties, barbeques and on the beach. Have fun creating your own, start off with my sangria recipe and if you feel you can impove it to suit your own taste, go ahead.

Sangria's appeal is all about taking your favorite red wine, your favorite fruits, and experimenting with them. Sangria is typically created from red wine, fruit juices,casera (sprite,7 up), fruit and spirits. When making your own Sangria, you can use a good quality red wine or a cheaper one. Personally I would use a cheaper wine not waste an expensive one in a mix. The choice is yours, you're the one drinking it!

There are 2 type's of Sangria, red and white. Red is the most popular. Charley's Bar is situated on the Costa del Sol in Southern Spain, here is our recipe.

Some recipes I've seen recommend that you chill it overnight??
I recommend that you drink it straight away!!

White Sangria Recipe
Basically White Sangria is the same as Red Sangria but you replace the red wine with white wine and leave out the orange juice.
