Photos of Sangria Punch Recipe
A sangria punch recipe is the perfect drink recipe whether you’re planning to assemble a tapas night with some friends, or hosting a big party. Simply get a punch bowl, get a bunch of your favorite flavor drinks and juices, and slice up some fruits. Don’t forget the ladle so anyone in the party can scoop up their drink!
If you want to up the alcoholic content, brandy and rum make a great addition. Brandy has a specifically smooth yet dry taste. Fruits absorb rum pretty well, too. When you mix both drinks with wine, you get a taste of the cocktail close to its authentic taste. When choosing wine, low tannin red wines such as Garnachee or Pinot Noir are best, especially since we’re after a fruity flavor. If you only have a high tannin wine available, balance it with a sweetener such as brown sugar or maple syrup.
On the other hand, you don’t need to host a party to make a sangria punch recipe. Make a small batch, store them on the fridge, and consume when you feel like it. Since they store well for more than a week, why not make them into ice cubes? Put some into a tall glass filled with water, and have it as a refreshing drink. If you’re the type who enjoy turning every recipe into “strictly for adults,” try our Strawberry Margarita Popsicle Recipe. Just make sure to put it someplace where the kids can’t reach.

What to eat with sangria?
As sangria originates from Spain, foods that go well with it are traditional Spanish foods like tapas, stuffed peppers, paella, Tex-Mex, and veggie burgers. The key here is to balance the spiciness in most Mexican and Spanish foods. White sangria taste best with seafood paella and chicken recipes.
How is sangria best served?
Let the sangria sit for more than 6 hours to overnight in the refrigerator before serving. This resting period will allow the fruits to infuse with the liquid balancing the sweetness and the alcoholic taste.
What kind of glass do you serve sangria in?
A wine tumbler is the best choice. Since both the fruits and ice could add to the volume, it’s best to choose a wine glass large enough to fit a proper serving, with a mouth wide enough to make it possible to consume the fruits. To make an elegant Sangria glass, stick a fancy toothpick to cherries or raspberries for decoration. Or stick some lemon slices on the glass.
What fruits should you put in a sangria?
Apples and pears are common choices to add in a sangria. But the choices are endless! Put orange, peaches, and other berries as you like. The only thing you need to remember is that your choice of fruit affects whether you get a sweet or less sweet beverage.
