The Best Sangria Recipes For Any Occasion

The Best Sangria Recipes For Any Occasion

Wine is wonderful. There are so many types that go well with any occasion, whether you’re watching a movie on your couch or throwing a party. But sometimes, wine can get—dare we say it—kind of boring. Luckily, there are plenty of ways to step up your wine game. One of the most popular, as well as our personal favorite, is sangria. Made with red or white wine, fruit, and even hard alcohol if you’re really trying to rage, sangria is a refreshing drink that requires minimum effort and maximum enjoyment. Check out Winefolder for the perfect sangria wine, and read below for a few delicious recipes. 

Red Wine Sangria

The beautiful thing about sangria is its versatility. All it takes is a few simple ingredients, customized whichever way you’d like in order to be delicious. That being said, here’s what we think is the best red wine sangria in existence. You might be asking yourself what type of wine you should use. Well, you’re free to use whichever you’d like! If you’d like to stay true to traditional Spanish sangria, however, try a Garnacha or another medium bodied red wine like Merlot. Once you’ve picked your perfect wine, use it in the following recipe.

-->

Ingredients (serves 1-4):

·       Your bottle of wine

·       1 can of Sprite or other lemon-lime soda

·       2 shots of Triple Sec

·       1 lime, thinly sliced

·       1 lemon, thinly sliced

·       1 orange, thinly sliced

·       Berries! Add as many strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, and blueberries as you’d like

·       Ice

Directions: First, add all of your fruit to a large pitcher. Next, add your wine and triple sec. Let that delicious mixture soak for as long as you can (it’ll be difficult, we know!) before adding in your soda. Pour over ice and enjoy! 

White Wine Sangria 

If red wine is a little too intense for you, don’t worry! There are plenty of sangrias made with white wine that are just as delicious. If you want to stay traditional, use a bottle of Spanish Cava, otherwise, a zesty, sparkling white such as Prosecco works great, too. Like red wine sangria, feel free to use any kind of fruit! Our favorite recipe, however, involves peach. 

Ingredients (serves 1-4)

•    Your bottle of wine

•    ¼ cup of Brandy

•    2-3 tablespoons of sugar

•    4 white peaches, cubed

•    1 lemon, thinly sliced

Directions: First, add brandy and the lemon slices to the bottom of a pitcher. Next, add the peach cubes and ice. Pour your white wine over the mixture and serve.
