THE BEST SANGRIA
The longer sangria sits before drinking, the more smooth and mellow it will taste. A full day is best, but if that's impossible, give it an absolute minimum of two hours to sit. Use large, heavy, juicy oranges and lemons for the best flavor. Doubling or tripling the recipe is fine, but you'll have to switch to a large punch bowl in place of the pitcher.

Best sangria I've ever had. The evil is in how tipsy it'll make you because you want to drink so much of it.

I found this on the internet a long time ago and it's a hit at parties. I've never added the brandy though, but I've left it in the recipe. *Note: Time to make includes the 18 hour chill time!*

BEST-EVER SPANISH SANGRIA
This is as close as I have found to sangria in Spanish restaurants. No soda here! This is a mulled sangria that really draws out the flavors. Prep time does not include chilling overnight.

- Pour liquid into a heat proof jug or allow liquid to cool first.
- Pour wine into container with brandy.

THE VERY BEST SANGRIA
There is a popular Spanish restaurant in town where they are known for their sangria. After years of downing this delicious and potent quaff, I had to have the recipe. You may make this with either red or white wine. Do not leave out the cinnamon. Add sugar to your likeness. Personally, I don't like it too sweet. Careful... This packs a punch on those unsuspecting.

Tips:
- Choose the right wine. A good red wine is essential for a great sangria. Look for a wine that is fruity and flavorful, with a medium body. Some good options include Tempranillo, Garnacha, and Rioja.
- Use fresh fruit. Fresh fruit adds a bright, refreshing flavor to sangria. Use a variety of fruits, such as oranges, lemons, limes, berries, and peaches.
- Use a good sweetener. Sugar is the traditional sweetener for sangria, but you can also use honey, agave nectar, or simple syrup. Use just enough sweetener to balance out the tartness of the wine and fruit.
- Add some spices. Spices can add a warm, complex flavor to sangria. Common spices used in sangria include cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg.
- Let it chill. Sangria is best served cold. Chill it for at least 2 hours before serving, or even overnight.
Conclusion:
With these tips in mind, you're sure to make a delicious sangria that everyone will enjoy. So next time you're looking for a refreshing and festive drink, give sangria a try.
