This Easy Red Sangria Recipe is simple and delicious! Red Sangria a refreshing cocktail that will take you minutes to make and will impress everyone in your home!
Red Sangria Ingredients
- Red Wine: We recommend using a dry red wine that is Spanish or Portuguese origin.
- Brandy: Brandy is the liquor that gives us a bolder, sweeter, and fruiter flavor to our red sangria.
- Citrus: We used lime juice, orange juice, and orange slices in our red sangria to give it a citrusy flavor.
- Apples: We used a cored and diced honey crisp apple. Any red or green apple will work.
- Sparkling Water: Sparkling water isn't traditionally found in red sangria, but we found that it brightens up the drink and gives it a refreshing crisp taste.
- Sweetener: Feel free to sweeten to taste, using more or less sweetener as desired. We prefer agave or honey in our red sangria. Be sure to mix well.
How To Make Red Sangria
Mix all of the ingredients together in a large pitcher. Serve immediately over ice or store in the fridge overnight to help infuse the flavors more.
