Notes
- Try a sweetener. If the sangria is too strong for you, lighten sangria by adding a splash of sparkling water or light soda.
- Make ahead. Make sangria a day ahead, so flavors can meld.
- Select an affordable red wine. Choose a bottle you wouldn’t mind enjoying on its own. Wine is the base ingredient, after all, so let it shine.
- How to store. Leftover sangria can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days.
