It's another "Summer of Sangria" Saturday! The last few weeks we've taken you to your favorite produce market in search of that perfect summertime treat .. Sangria! This week we're sticking to tradition .. traditional "Sangria" that is!
The beauty of the traditional or classic sangria recipe is that it is as delicious as it is easy, and it only gets better as you spice it up with your own flair and flavors. Start with our base recipe and add anything you want!
Ingredients for the traditional Sangria!
1 750 ml bottle Rioja, or any dry red wine
½ cup Brandy
½ cup Orange Liqueur
¼ cup Honey
2 cups Sparkling Water
½ cup sliced Oranges
½ cup sliced Lemons
½ cup sliced Limes
Instructions
1. Pour wine in the pitcher and add honey, orange liqueur and brandy. Stir to dissolve the honey. Squeeze the juice wedges from the lime, lemon and orange into the wine. Toss in the fruit wedges (leaving out seeds if possible). Chill overnight. Add sparkling water just before serving.
Learning the “Classic Sangria” recipe opens the door for crafting any flavor combinations you choose. Add peaches, strawberries, blueberries, pretty much any fruit you like to this recipe and make it your own!
