I have been enjoying exploring Spanish cuisine so much of late that I thought I would give you alcoholics a little treat today – my recipe [stolen from many many people] for Sangria. There are actually many variations of this recipe, which vary in fruit, type and quantity of alcohol or soda. Whichever one you chose remember one thing – it must be chilled.
This recipe makes 2 pints
1 bottle dry full bodied red wine
1 can fizzy orange, chilled
1 can fizzy lemon, chilled
Spanish brandy
Banana liqueur
Cointreau
1 apple, chopped
1 pear, chopped
1 lemon, thinly sliced
1 orange, thinly sliced
1 tsp sugar
1 cinnamon stick
Lots of Ice Cubes
Put all the fruit pieces into a large jug, then pout over a generous amount of the banana liqueur, cointreau and brandy. Pour in the bottle of wine, and leave in the fridge to chill.
Once this is really cold, and I mean REALLY cold, pour in the fizzy drinks and add the cinnamon and sugar. Mix in ice cubes and serve.
