CUBAN SANGRIA



Cuban Sangria image

This is a recipe for Cuban Sangria that I first had at a pool party in the Little Havana area of Miami. It was made by the host in a large cooler and dipped out during a BBQ and party. It was the best Sangria I have ever had and my wife and I have made it several times since to serve with rave reviews. BEWARE! It is a strong drink and in the summer sun it will creep up on you as it goes down so refreshing.

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (750 ml) bottle inexpensive fruity medium-bodied red wine
1 (750 ml) bottle coconut rum (I use Captain Morgan)
1 large fresh orange
1 fresh lime
1 fresh lemon
5 fresh kiwi
1 lb green grape
1 fresh mango
1 lb fresh strawberries

Steps:

  • Wash and cut the fruit into small chunks.
  • You do not need to peel the fruit, just wash and chunk.

  • Pour the full contents of the red wine and rum over the fresh fruit, mixing and stirring.
  • Cover the cooler and let sit for at least 24 hours in a dark cool place.
  • (This is the hard part.).
  • Serve the mixture by spooning out with a ladle into cups with the fruit and liquid.
  • Can be poured over ice, but is equally as good straight from the cooler.

TRADITIONAL SANGRIA



Traditional Sangria image

Rafael Mateo, the proprietor of Pata Negra, a Spanish wine bar in the East Village, formulated this sangria that is winelike and very refreshing, with a keen balance of tart and fruity flavors. Unlike many recipes, which specify Rioja made from the tempranillo grape, Mr. Mateo prefers using garnacha from Campo de Borja in central Spain, which he said has backbone without being overly tannic. He lightens the blend by adding rosé, and sweetens it with orange liqueur and orange soda rather than with fruit purée, a common addition, which he dislikes because, he said, it gives the sangria a grainy texture. He experimented with orange juice rather than soda, but found it, too, changed the texture. Finally, he allows the punch to knit together overnight and adds cut fruit only at the end, as a garnish.

CLASSIC SPANISH SANGRIA



Classic Spanish Sangria image

This is an authentic version of the popular wine drink. You can add any fruit that you want, but I find that apples and pears absorb all the rum. This one is not diluted with carbonated beverages. I have much success with red Burgundy wine and white rum, though spiced rum is nice too.
