My step-mother from Madrid showed me how to make this. Use Spanish Rioja wine. I go a bit heavier with El Presidente brandy and go a bit easier on the fruit juices since that was what I was taught. I can see where some would prefer a sweeter version but me, I like the juice from the fruit to add their signature flavors, not anything else.

Make sure to let it sit for several hours before serving. A definite party-maker!!! Read More. Most helpful critical review kelcampbell Allstar. Rating: 1 stars. I thought this recipe was the most awful thing I have ever tasted. I go to Mexico every year and this was a far cry from the 'real thing'; absolutely nasty I definitely do not recommend this! Reviews: Most Helpful. Is this recipe for a 2-gallon dispenser? Hi Danielle, this recipe makes about 4 cups, so you will probably want to make a batch 8 times this size to fill a 2-gallon dispenser.

Made this with one full apple, one full orange and also added a full lemon all sliced as per recipe skipped the sugar as I dont like it overly sweet anyways and it was awesome!

I used apricot brandy and it was perfect. The bottle of wine I had was a full bodied fruity with notes of blackberry and raspberry in it and I liked it more in this sangria recipe than drinking it on its own! Are you referring to a different one? Let us know and we are happy to help! Wine is Gluten free.

Hayley might want to check what the alcohol base is for the brandy. Rum is totally GF so she might want to use that to be shure. I used an inexpensive Merlot, made the recipe as written and it turned out great! I think Sangria is one of the most easily adaptable recipes on the planet.

The first time I had it was in Faro Portugal after a 20 hr flight. It was fantastic, and wherever we ordered it in Portugal it was a little different, but fantastic. This recipe is a great base, but use what you have.

I added strawberries and pineapple to this one and some Triple Sec to sweeten. Thanks for the great reminder of Portugal. Dana, Thank you for this very simple and tasty recipe! Fabulous recipe! Just like the one you have in Spain in a hot summer day. I made a fruit salad blackberries, oranges, strawberries, kiwis and grapes had bananas too but I took those out for a party but made way too much so I decided to try using the booze components and see how it would be.

My hubby now wants me to make extra cut up fruit for every event! Thank you for sharing! How long would this sangria last? Is it better to let the fruit infuse? Or make and serve? So excited to try this!! This one could easily have been my long lost recipe, as it was exactly as I remembered. Made this to go with a fajita feast, and we loved it.

Made with a decent quality Rioja. Hi, looks good…. Is that sacrilegious, lol? Good luck! This recipe was great. I have never made sangria before but it was a hit! I doubled the recipe, used rum, and everyone drank the whole bowl for christmas dinner. Definitely a keeper! Wish me luck! Just made this for Thanksgiving dinner! Added a bit more brandy, as suggested, but definitely pretty good!

This is my favorite fall sangria that I always come back to have already made twice this fall. Love the fresh squeezed OJ and I use apple brandy. I top off with a little bit of seltzer. Thanks for this amazing recipe that is a crowd pleaser and SO easy! We made this recipe for party this weekend times 6, or 6 bottles of Anciano Tempranillo wine along with Christian Brothers brandy, in a 2. We added the full dose of sugar plus some extra orange juice to just top off, and it filled the jug completely without ice to marinate.

We then transferred to a punch bowl with frozen fruit ring to keep it chilled water plus fruit maxed out, made in a bundt pan , then added ice to each glass when served. The presentation was beautiful! My husband and I ARE sangria lovers and thoroughly enjoyed this recipe! I wanted to add a photo here but no option. Tried it! I did taste it and added a bit of sugar and a tiny bit of rhum ; hehe. Everyone loves this.

All the recipes online with 12 ingredients are just unnecessary. I plan on using Tempranillo wine and Blackberry Brandy with your existing recipe. My concern is too much sweetness…. I think that should work, Brian!

I just finished making a double batch. Easy to make and a great recipe… I tasted I and added a bit more of the brown sugar and the rest of the brandy and it taste great. I have it in the fridge to cool and will see how great it taste tomorrow.

Any ideas? I still have one… :. You can google it and see pictures. I still have a very little one from when I lived in Spain years ago. Since you are very familiar with sangria, would you mind telling us what kind of alcohol and sugar you use?

We were in both northern and southern Spain but the sangria was always the same — always delicious! Perfect blend of smooth, fruity flavors with a full bodied booziness. This recipe is 5 stars and will be a favorite to anyone who loves sangria.

We are so glad you were able to taste a little bit of your trip to Spain in this sangria, Jen! Was checking out a good sangria recipe for our restaurant in NYC.

I came across this one, and man, oh man! So easy to make and delicious. Always love looking your recipes UP. I made this with rum because we had no brandy on hand. I did not like it. Wish I tasted it before adding the rum because I bet it was good without it. Three years after the other comments — but I have made this twice in the past two weeks. It is a total winner and perfect for summer cook-outs. Everyone raves about how good it is.

I usually divide the brandy quantity into brandy and cointreau. Keep refrigerated, add a splash of soda and some ice when serving. I remove the fruit from it after 24 hours so it keeps a little longer in the fridge. Just watch out, it catches up with you quickly!

We drank Sangria every night on the beach in Barcelona. They offer it as traditional, which compares to your recipe, or with a sparkling white wine. I search for a recipe hoping to find the best wine to use. Any idea on what wine to use to make the sparkly version? We were in Seville in the summer, , and we drank pitchers of this wonderful, satisfying drink. In one restaurant, they added canned fruit cocktail I recognized the sad grapes and even it was delicious.

Your recipe is a righteous reproduction that I will enjoy now that I am back in the states. I was in Spain for 5 days. Every day I was having Sangria prepared in a traditional way. It is really refreshing and tasty. Made this for a Christmas party and followed the recipe as written and it was fantastic!

My daughter had been to Spain in May and said this Sangria was exactly what she had in Barcelona! It will be my go to for sure! Belated thanks for a recipe that had my friends raving and a bit tipsy this summer. I made it multiple times, using different combinations of wine and fruit, and it was always outstanding.

That always happens. But we actually made this tonight and it is amazing! This recipe was really good! I love this recipe!

I made it with a Spanish Monastrell like you recommended above, but I found one that is vegan and made with organic grapes!! Your Sangri recipe looks so amazingly simple, but for most recipes making a larger quantity is more complicated than just doubling or tripling the ingredients. So, now I want to make a large batch. What changes would you suggest to make a bathtub full? Made this recipe about a year ago and absolutely loved it!!

Came across it again today and you know what that means?! I made this drink for Thanksgiving I was asked to again make it for Christmas eve and I did. I am now asked to make it again for Thanksgiving I will.

My first batch was with Rioja. But if I had to choose, I would definitely stay with the Spanish wines. Used half the sugar,tho. I made this last night for a Spanish themed dinner.

I had to make a second batch! Love your recipes Dana. This was a terrific recipe! Made it the night before and took it camping! Thanks so much for sharping. Catalonia also wants to succeed from the country. Most people are excited in a different country! Sounds like a blast! Its really helpful. I was wondering what sangria is.. But perfectly introduce by you.. Exact ingredients of liquors are well distinguished. Thank you for the recipe! This was wonderful.

I used Tuaca a sweet Italian brandy , a tangerine, and a Honeycrisp apple. We were out of orange juice, so I improvised with an all-fruit no-sugar-added tangerine popsicle. It turned out great — my friend said that should be my secret ingredient every time I make it. This is the best basic sangria recipe i have tried, and i made it a couple of different ways! I tried grand marnier instead of brandy and it was extra fruity. Has anyone ever made this recipe? Lots of reviews from people who say it sounds great, looks like a good recipe etc.

Luckily my daughter just had asked me to buy OJ, so I had that and everything else on hand including only one bottle on Spanish wine that to my wine club membership , so it seemed that the stars were aligning and telling me to Make.

Just took my first sip and before enjoying the rest I wanted to leave you and everyone else a comment noting how delicious this is!! I would imagine if I had an orange it would have been even more flavorful. Excuse they typos! Clearly I was a little excited : Oh and I had a bottle of rum on hand, so went with that. I have made this twice now and really enjoy it! So easy and tastes so good! Thanks for sharing :. Question: My sister is coming for a weekend visit and she will be the only one drinking this.

How long will it last in a pitcher; should I make an entire batch or just smaller amounts? It lasts in the fridge up to 48hrs, though best when fresh. Probably best to do smaller amounts! How would I make this in bulk particularly 6 litres?

Do I just multiply everything to get the desired quantity? I am not a Sangria drinker at all. Even when I was in Spain — — nope, not even one sip. Asked her for the recipe and am making it for my niece and her family this week. She adores Sangria — — so I know she will love this too. Thank you. How much flavor do you think you can get from an apple right after putting it in wine? If you marinate your fruits overnight not only do you get more flavor but also the alcohol level rises due to the sugar from the fruits.

This drink is not be be drank lightly as you will get drunk very easily with it been there, done that, got the Tshirt. French Chef. The only difference is I added some canned peaches and mangos to the fresh apples and oranges. Perfect drink for an afternoon summer in south Florida! Thank you so much. Made this today with a sweet red so I left out the sugar! It was fabulous!

Just got home from Spain a few days ago and was really missing the sangria. Found your recipe, which was super easy to make with minimum ingredients, gave it a shot and voila! It tasted almost exactly the same as some of the sangria I had over there. I did add a little bit of sprite as well. Thank you for this! Made this the other weekend with some cheap red wine that we would never of frank on its own.

I have two sweet red wines to use instead of dry wines — is that okay? Should I omit some sugar? Also, what do you think of using hard ginger beer instead of orange juice?

Bad idea? I live in Germany, so I used a German red wine. It was fun to put a German spin on a Spanish drink — but I served it in my sangria pitcher from Spain. Everyone who tried it loved it. I made this today with some modifications and it was great, just replaced apple with sliced organic strawberries and added some sweet organic red grapes. Should have sliced them in half, but the strawberries were beautifully soaked with the red wine.

Everybody loved it! Am I suppose to crush the fruit as I mix? This looks so wonderful! I love the pitcher you used. I just made this to take to a dinner party in a few hours!!!! Super easy, and although I have had Sangria many times some in Spain I have never taken the time to learn to make it myself….. Thanks for this!!! Hi Dana! I only have peach brandy; do you think it will add to the flavor, or overpower it? Hi Emily! Stir the macerated fruit mixture to ensure the sugar is dissolved, then tip into the jug with the wine and brandy.

Stir, then top up with the sparkling water and serve. Subscriber club Reader offers More Good Food. Back to Recipes Pumpkin recipes Butternut squash See more.
