PORTUGUESE SANGRIA BLANCO



Portuguese Sangria Blanco image

I'm not a wine drinker, but I do enjoy sangria in the summer! This is a nice, light and refreshing white wine version and a great patio drink; be sure to serve some of the drunken little fruits with each glass! Prep time includes "sitting time" of sangria.

PORTUGUESE SANGRIA

This sangria, with a base of sturdy Portuguese red wine, has enough heft to accompany complex dishes like arroz gordo from Macau or a big party-size paella. You can temper it by adding 12 ounces of sparkling water to the ingredients after they've been combined.
