White Sangria
Combinations are endless
The typical sangria is made with red wine infused with apples and oranges. It is sweet and heavy on the palate. White sangria is light and refreshing, highlighting the fruit within it more than its red counterpart because of the subtle flavor of white wine. The picture above was a homemade, hasty attempt at sprucing up a glass of white wine with green grapes. Normally, there are not as many green grapes within each glass, but we didn’t care. Each glass looked like its own little aquarium with green rocks on the bottom. At the end of the glass, we ate the little jewels that soaked up all the flavors of the sweet wine.
There are many sangria combinations, but here’s a few of the ones I prefer with the red or white I would drink it in. I don’t add sugar or any other liquor, I just let it set for an hour or so in the refrigerator. But feel free to add whatever else you would like to make it sweeter.
