Description

A refreshing and fruity red sangria recipe perfect for summer gatherings. This Spanish-inspired cocktail features a mix of red wine, brandy, and fresh citrus fruits, with a splash of orange liqueur for a delicious twist.


Ingredients

Scale

Red Sangria:

  • 1 bottle (750 ml) dry red wine (such as Tempranillo or Merlot)
  • 1/4 cup brandy
  • 1/4 cup orange liqueur (like Cointreau or Triple Sec)
  • 2 tablespoons sugar or honey (optional)
  • 1 orange (sliced)
  • 1 lemon (sliced)
  • 1 lime (sliced)
  • 1/2 cup sliced strawberries or raspberries
  • 1 apple (cored and diced)
  • 1 1/2 cups sparkling water or club soda (chilled)
  • Ice for serving

Instructions

  1. In a large pitcher, combine the wine, brandy, orange liqueur, and sugar or honey if using. Stir until the sweetener is dissolved.
  2. Add the sliced orange, lemon, lime, apple, and berries. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or up to 24 hours to allow the flavors to meld.
  3. Just before serving, stir in the chilled sparkling water. Serve over ice in glasses with fruit pieces.

Notes

  • Use a fruit-forward red wine and avoid overly tannic varieties.
  • Customize with seasonal fruit like peaches or blackberries.
  • For a sweeter sangria, add a splash of orange juice or more honey.
