Spanish; fruit cup prepared from red wine fortified with brandy, in which fruit has been marinated, diluted with carbonated water and served with ice.

[san-GREE-uh] The blood-red color of this beverage inspired its name, which is derived from the Spanish word for "blood". Sangría is made with red wine, fruit juices, soda water, fruit and sometimes liqueurs and brandy or cognac. Sangría blanco (white sangría) is made with white wine. Both are served cold over ice and make a refreshing cooler on a hot summer day.
