  Easy Traditional Red Sangria
I had the greatest sangria (and patatas bravas) of my life once we went to Spain in 2013.
Perhaps my recollection of that first drink is barely biased. We’d simply arrived to Barcelona from a long, tiring teach ride, after which walked what appeared like miles carrying 40-pound backpacks into the metropolis to attain our AirBnB. We have been drained and hangry, to assert the least.



Our first concept upon losing our bags was “tapas and sangria.” So off we went in seek of sustenance, and what we discovered was glorious.


Stirring fruit for making home made Traditional Sangria

Can all of us simply agree the Spanish do it well, “it” being everything?

Traditionally the Spanish get pleasure from espresso within the morning, work a little, take an afternoon relaxation (or siesta), work a piece of more, then retire within the night time via consuming tapas and consuming nice wine with the folks they love. Eventually, they shut eye simply to do all of it over back the subsequent day. If that doesn’t sound like a slice of heaven, I don’t recognise what does.

Oh, and did I point out they proficient the global with sangria? Does it get any higher than this lush, fruity beverage? I assume not.

Though there are many interpretations of what “traditional sangria” is, I’ve discovered that it usually requires those primary components:

Fruit (like apples and oranges)
Orange juice
A sweetener (like brown sugar or cane sugar)
A liquor (like brandy or rum)
Bold, fruity, dry Spanish red wine (like Tempranillo, Garnacha, or different Rioja wine)
& Ice (for chilling)

For this version, I went with brandy simply due to the fact as quickly as I smelled it, I within the present day thought, “this smells like sangria!” But of course, if you’d especially use rum, be my guest.
