Homemade sangria
Sangria, the classic cocktail from Spain, keeps in the fridge, covered with cling film, for a couple of hours – any longer and the wine starts to oxidise and the drink loses its freshness. Serve on ice, if you prefer it a little cooler.
Serves: 6 - 8
Ingredients
- Juice of 1 orange, plus orange slices
- 1 small glass of brandy
- 1 tbsp caster sugar
- 1 bottle chilled, full-bodied and fruity red wine
- Lemon slices
- Lemonade
Method
- Pour the juice of 1 orange plus 1 small glass of brandy into a large jug. Stir in 1 tbsp caster sugar and, when dissolved, add 1 bottle of chilled, full-bodied and fruity red wine, and orange and lemon slices.
- Top up with lemonade – anything from 37.5cl (half the quantity of wine) to 75cl (equal quantities with the wine), depending on how strong you like it.
