Description
Sangria is a fruity red wine beverage from Spain. It consists of red wine, orange juice and in brandy soaked fruit pieces, a palatable and world famous mixture that goes down well with almost everybody. You can prepare big quantities in a bowl, thats why it's a good drink for events with many people.
The fruit pieces you prepare in advance and let them soak with alcohol for a couple of hours. Apples and pears are best choice for Sangria, but you could also add other fruit chunks like e.g. pineapples or melons. A half slice of lemon and orange belongs into the drink, it refines the taste and looks really good.
A great option for nice get-togethers in the evening with many people.

1.
Preparation of the fruits

Start with washing all apples and pears and cut them into large pieces. Put them into a bowl and pour brandy and lemon juice over it. Leave them a couple of hours in the fridge, that they become completely soaked with alcohol.
2.
Mixing and serving

Take the soaked fruit pieces out of the fridge, add red wine, orange juice and sugar syrup. Serve it ice cold with a half slice of orange and lemon. Lay out ready some teaspoons, it's a great help to eat the fruit pieces.

Decoration / Serving

Sangria in a tumbler and wine glasses.
Tumbler, wine or small-sized long-drink glasses are most appropiate for Sangria. A half slice of lemon, orange and the fruit chunks belong into the drink. Lay out ready a tea spoon for everybody, it's a great help to eat the fruit pieces. Further decorations like a slice of orange on the border of the glass are rather unusual.
