Sangria - The World S Best
Cocktail Recipe

Cocktail rating: My rating:

Cocktail Ingredients:

1. Cabernet Sauvignon - 1.5 liter
2. Sugar - 1 cup
3. Brandy - 3 - 4 oz
4. Lemon - 1 large sliced
5. Orange - 1 large sliced
6. Apples - 1 large (cut into thin pieces)

Cocktail Mixing Instructions:

Mix these altogether in a large container, stir, and let sit for 18-24 hours. Yes, I know that's a LONG time, but it's well worth the wait. A much more delightful sangria is produced when the fruit juice blends with the wine by osmosis than by stirring. (By the way, you should let it sit in the refrigerator during this long interim). When you are ready to drink it 18-24 hours later, stir it up again, and add sugar or brandy to taste, it should be fairly strong and fairly sweet, almost syrupy. Then, cut the mixture with some sort of bubbly water, orange or lemon flavored if possibly, but plain bubbly water is fine, until it seems to have a thinner, more wine like consistency. Drink and enjoy.
