Sangria, anyone?

[kimwim8]

I love love love Sangria, but have never attempted to make it myself.

Anyone have a good recipe? I'd like to try!

TIA Have a GREAT weekend!

I make Sangrias all of the time. www.paellapans.com has some good recipes. I pour some of this and some of that so it's hard for me to actually write down an accurate recipe

I have always read about Sangria at Hoop Dee Doo but I have to be honest....I'm stupid, what is it? What does it taste like?

Ohhh, they have it at HDDR? Another reason to try that!

Anyway, its a wine-ish drink with a mix of ingredients, but also has fresh fruit cut up in it, which adds awesome flavor.

So its fruity? Is it strong like say an Ameretto Sour? If it is I may have to change to HDDR myself...LOL!

 

[Crankyshank]

It's wine, sugar, fresh fruit, and either rum or vodka- depending on which you prefer

Mmmmm I made some last weekend. And yes I am another one who throws in a little bit of this and that. The last batch I used Wine (duh), pineapple juice, sugar, cinnamon, sliced orange, sliced peach, sliced apple and sliced grapes. YUMMY. Oh and I think it is better if it sits 24 hours before drinking.

Where is this place you speak of, and do they serve alcohol??

 

[Crankyshank]

That sounds similar to the one I made last. Although I used pineapple rum and mango instead of oranges

Its Hoop De Doo Review at Fort Wilderness. From Deb's sight it says you get all the soft drinks and Sangria that you can drink.

 

[Miss Jasmine]

Mango, I'll have to try that next time.

I saw a recipe on foodnetwork for a white wine sangria with peaches. I've been thinking of trying this since it's summer. It just sounded so light.

 

[Crankyshank]

the mango went really well with the granny smith apples.
Now I want some more

Ok, so Sangria is not a country. Hold on, let me write that down. Alright, got it.

Is that similar to a convention?? Lots of drinking at conventions.

If you're lazy like me you can just buy it by the bottle at any liquor store. I like Cruz-Real brand (comes in kind of a triangular bottle), and Yago is my second choice.

Williams-Sonoma stores sell bottles of sangria mix. You just add wine and some fruit. It comes in white and red. We liked the white better, for what it's worth.

 

[Beauty]

Nope, not a country

I don't know if regular Sangria tastes like this but this stuff makes me want to vomit.
