"Though we associate modern-day sangria with having Spanish roots, versions of it can be traced back to the early Greeks and Romans who often drank their wine mixed with fruits, spices, and other flavorings - essentially, a type of sangria before it would've been called sangria. Nowadays, sangria can take on a whole slew of flavor profiles, including those with more seasonal ingredients."
"This fall-worthy red sangria recipe, from the kitchen of recipe developer Jennine Rye, takes the basic concept of a classic sangria and makes it autumnal. Red wine is mixed with sweet brandy, spicy ginger beer, cinnamon sticks, and apple juice, for a warming and cozy drink with the perfect fall influence. No sangria would be complete without fruit, and this recipe uses some of the best seasonal produce (think pears, apples, plums, and figs) to complete its fall-forward flavor profile."
Sangria is a wine-based punch with long roots, originating with early Greeks and Romans who mixed wine with fruits, spices and flavorings. Modern sangria has Spanish associations and accepts seasonal variations. The fall red sangria combines red wine with sweet brandy, spicy ginger beer, apple juice, and cinnamon sticks for a warming, cozy drink. Seasonal fruits—apples, pears, plums, and figs—finish the flavor; slightly sweeter apples (Galas or Red Delicious) and pears like Concorde, Comice, Conference, or Bartlett are recommended. Ingredients include red wine, brandy, apple juice, ginger beer, cinnamon sticks, and ice. Place the fruit in a large pitcher to begin.
