Simple Sangria

Because everyone should know how to concoct a pitcher of Sangria, Caribbean Trading Company presents to you a basic recipe for a traditional Sangria. Please feel free to get creative and submit your own Sangria recipes. Will post most the most fascinating and yummy.

Ingredients -1 bottle of red wine -juice of 1 lime -1.5 table spoons of sugar -2 to 3 cups of chopped fresh fruit (1 apple, 1 orange, 1 peach, handful of red grapes)

Step 1: Chopping the fruit You’ll want to maximize the surface of fleshy part of the fruit – so thin slices for the orange and cubes for the apple and peach. Grapes should be peeled and cut in half. Leave some slices on the side for garnishing later.

Step 2: Bringing it all together Combine red wine, lime juice, sugar and chopped fruit into a large pitcher and stir with a wooden spoon. For best results, let the Sangria sit in the refrigerator overnight – however if you want to drink right away, just chill the Sangria until cold.

Step 3: Serving Pour Sangria into a wine glass over 2 or 3 ice cubes and garnish with left over fruit pieces for presentation.


La Vampirita

Unlike a Bloody Mary, this drink is actually your traditional frozen margarita layered with sangria. Potent and alluring, the Vamparita is sure to please even the most demanding blood-thirsty pallet.

To serve up a Vamparita simply fill 2/3 of a tall glass with frozen margarita and then pour in sangria for the remaining 1/3. Garnish with an orange wedge and serve immediately.
