Whenever I entertain, I serve sangria. I’m known for my recipe and I never seem to make enough of it! Here is my best sangria recipe ever!
To kick off summer, we always have a huge BBQ in our backyard, and without fail, I make sangria. Our guests look forward to it, so much so, that I’m getting texts and phone calls days in advance to reserve a glass for them. I run out within minutes of the party starting.
If you google sangria recipes, you’ll find hundreds. Between red wine sangria and white wine sangria, the internet is loaded with recipes. Believe me, I’ve looked. And though I’ve tried a few and have enjoyed each one, none compare to my own sangria recipe.
Most recipes have the addition of rum. Some with tequila. I’ve even tasted a couple with vodka and bourbon included. Though I finished my glass with each tasting, I have come up with the liquor trifecta of the best ever sangria recipe.
