What is National Sangria Day?
On December 20th, National Sangria Day is celebrated around the world each year, recognizing a wine and fresh fruit combination that brings a new celebration to the table.
Sangria is a wine and honeyed with fresh fruit and fruit juices. Other ingredients may include herbs, spices, carbonation, and liquor. The combinations are endless, giving sangria a spot in the cocktail rotation year-round. This fruity punch is very versatile, with refreshing and light during hot summer months, brilliant and sparkling during the winter ones.
For the best flavors, use fresh fruit in season. Once mixed, sangria should be chilled, and the fruit can be allowed to marinate for a few hours or overnight. If you make sangria using 100% juice, you'll get the maximum benefits as well. The fruit versus all the sweet cakes and pies over the holidays will be healthier. Get the benefits of red wine, but drink moderation and sangria will be worth the festivities.
