Notes
Tips
- If you prefer a drier sangria, use a dry red wine.
- For the best flavor, let the sangria sit in the refrigerator for 6-8 hours prior to serving to allow the flavors to come together.
- Add 1-2 star anise and cinnamon sticks for a nice spiced taste! Especially in the winter.
- For a super fruity taste, add all of the fruit to the pitcher and muddle with the back of a spoon prior to adding the wine and fruit juices.
