Traditional Sangria Food

EASY TRADITIONAL RED SANGRIA

Steps:

• Add apples, oranges, and sugar to a large pitcher and muddle with a muddler or wooden spoon for 45 seconds.
• Add orange juice and brandy and muddle again to combine for 30 seconds.
• Add red wine and stir to incorporate, then taste and adjust flavor as needed. I added a bit more brandy, orange juice and brown sugar. Stir to combine.
• Add ice and stir once more to chill. Serve as is, or with a bit more ice. Garnish with orange segments (optional).
• Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 48 hours, though best when fresh.

BEST TRADITIONAL SPANISH SANGRIA RECIPE

Steps:

• If using the sugar (which will make a sweeter sangria than if you omit), dissolve the sugar in two tablespoons of water over a low flame to create a clear simple syrup. Let cool.
• Wash the oranges and cut off thick pieces of rind before juicing the oranges.
• Juice the oranges.
• Wash the lemon and cut off pieces of rind before juicing the lemon.
• Juice the lemon.
• In a large pitcher or bowl, stir together the wine, simple syrup, orange juice, lemon juice, and brandy (if using), and add in the pieces of lemon and orange rind. If making a truly traditional Spanish sangria, simply add the cinnamon stick and let sit at least two hours (preferably overnight) before serving over ice. This allows the sangria to take on the aromas of the fruit rind and cinnamon stick.
• If you want to make a slightly more modern version (still not anything too crazy!) add in chopped up chunks of green apple and peach. For the modern version you can also top off with a carbonated beverage (lemon soda, orange soda, or soda water) right before serving for some bubbles.
