CLASSIC · RED WINE

Sangria

Sangria rewards patience - making it the night before allows the spices and citrus to fully meld with the wine, producing a far more cohesive and complex drink than one made to order.

Method
  1. 1

    Pour 750ml red wine, 120ml orange juice, 60ml lemon juice, and 60ml simple syrup into a large pitcher and stir well to combine.

  2. 2

    Add 4–5 whole cloves and 2 cinnamon sticks, stirring gently to distribute.

  3. 3

    Cover and refrigerate for a minimum of 2 hours, or overnight for best results - the longer it sits, the more the spices bloom and integrate.

  4. 4

    Before serving, taste and adjust sweetness with additional simple syrup if needed, adding 15ml at a time.

  5. 5

    Fill wine glasses with ice, pour the sangria over, and garnish each glass with a fresh orange slice.

From the Bartender

Sangria rewards patience - making it the night before allows the spices and citrus to fully meld with the wine, producing a far more cohesive and complex drink than one made to order. Use a bold, fruit-forward red like Garnacha or Tempranillo for the most authentic Spanish result.
