MAKING SWEET RED WINE SANGRIA SWEETER

MAKING SWEET RED WINE SANGRIA SWEETER

Note:  I don’t add any additional sugar to my red wine sangria because the orange juice makes it sweet enough for me.  If you wish to make the sangria sweeter, add a little honey or sugar syrup to taste.  Homemade sugar syrup is ridiculously easy to make with only two ingredients.  Just take a small saucepan, bring a mixture of half water and half sugar to a boil and stir until sugar completely melts.  Remove syrup from the heat and let cool.
