The Herald has a non-alcoholic Sangria recipe we would like to share with you …
Ingredients:
• Two cinnamon sticks
• 1/2 cup sugar
• Three cups of pomegranate juice (red wine)
• One cup of freshly squeezed orange juice
• One medium orange, sliced into thin rounds
• One medium lemon, sliced into thin rounds
• One medium lime, sliced into thin rounds
• One medium apple, cored and cut into 1/2 chunks
• One cups of soda or sparkling water
In a large jug, combine cinnamon sticks, pomegranate juice, orange juice, orange, lemon, lime, and apple. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour and preferably overnight to allow fruit flavours to infuse.
Before serving, stir in soda or sparkling water and serve in a glass over ice.
* Alcohol is optional – the traditional recipe consists of red wine, which can be substituted with pomegranate juice.
