Recipe: Patio Daddio Sangria (pic)
Patio Daddio Sangria
Sangria is a great way to lighten up some red wine. It's a winey, fruity, refreshing and festive drink. Oh, and it's brain-dead easy to make. You can use any red wine for this recipe, but I recommend something full-bodied, like a Merlot. You want the wine to be bold enough to stand up to the fruit and ice. As for brands, I really like Barefoot. The quality is worth about three times the price. Ingredients 1 bottle (750 ml) Red wine (I recommend Barefoot Merlot) 1 Tangelo, sliced 1/4" thick 1 Lemon, sliced 1/4" thick 12 oz Ginger ale 1/4 cup Sugar Method Combine the wine and sugar in a large pitcher. Stir until the sugar is dissolved. Add the fruit and stir gently. Just before serving, add the ginger ale and stir. Serve over ice in a large wine glass. Enjoy! Tip: Roll the fruit on your counter under the palm of your hand before slicing. This will help release the juice and oils. ----- John |

Yup Sangria's are great! I have some Concorde downstairs that I like doing up with some berries. Only one bottle left though.

I love sangria in the summer. However once, when we didn't have fruit around, my wife decided to use a fruit flavored Icy Pop. This is NOT recommended.

Norco,
My wife and her family must still be in their youth along with my Mom. They kill a few bottle o Boone's on occasion. The Sangria looks great. Reminds me of place in New Mexico, named La Posta. Some dang good Mexican food and the pitchers of Sangria go so well with a big plate of red chile enchiladas! Thanks for the recipe. Bob

You should try and make it with an unoaked red wine. Much better refreshing mouthfeel on a hot day without the tannins in it. I suggest Beaujolais for affordability in a drink where finer nuances get lost. Australia is producing some excellent unoaked redwines, that arent to dry to be refreshing in a sangria.
Bring the alchohol content back up without the burn by adding a little brandy, gran marnier, triple sec or flavord vodka (pineapple). There are also alot of alchohol carbonated citrus beverages out there. Use it instead of ginger ale, or soda water for some flare. Also using orange blossom honey in place of simple syrup adds an awsome kick! |

I tend to like to stay traditional and go with a Spanish Rioja. I do the brandy, but add 750 ml of sparkling water. I don' t put juice in mine, but I do add lots of different fruit, usually what I can get that's fresh and in season along with an orange, a lemon and a lime. A bit of cinnamon is good in it, too, I think.
