Google: “Sangria is an alcoholic beverage originating in Spain and Portugal. A punch, sangria traditionally consists of red wine and chopped fruit, often with other ingredients or spirits. For starters, the Spanish word “sangria” translates to “blood.” The rich colours and Flavors of this beverage make the name fitting. The enjoyment of sangria has been dated back to 200 B.C. and has remained a fan favourite for a variety of reasons. Many speculate that after its creation in Spain, it was enjoyed by the Romans, who were the first to put a name to this beverage.”

“While sangria is generally made with red wine, you can also make a version with white wine. When it comes to the best wine to use, you have a few options. If you want to make a classic red sangria, we recommend using a Spanish red wine like Rioja or Tempranillo as your base for an authentic classic experience.
