ingredients

  • 2 pints cranberry juice (100% juice is best)

directions

  • Chill all ingredients.
  • Pour juices and wine into punch bowl.
  • Float orange slices on top.
  • Variations: You may adjust the proportions of juice to wine, depending on the strength and flavor profile of your particular wine.
  • This is also good with limes and lemons.
  • Ice cubes made of frozen juice are a nice addition, or you can freeze the citrus slices and use them to keep sangria cold.
  • This can be halved, doubled, tripled, etc. easily for any size group.

  1. A very refreshing and different (in a good way) sangria. For some reason, never thought about using cranberries for sangria which is odd since I love them so much and try them in some unusual recipes. I thought the flavours blended nicely for a drink that went down smoothly. Will make again. Made for ZWT4.
     
  2. I didn't do the whole recipe. I thought 2 pints of each juice would be too much for the quantity of wine. That's my preference. I prefer it more potent LOL So I did it in 2 glasses. Near 2 ounces of red wine (merlot) and 1 ounce of each juice. It was a nice taste. Not too sweet. Very refreshing. Thanks Emmy. Made for the Babes of ZWT4
     
  3. I really liked this one. I made it with cranberry juice cocktail and some "chillable" red boxed wine. It was surprisingly good and is a keeper for us !
     
  4. Very nice blend of flavours & simple to make with what I usually have on hand. Will make again, thanks! For ZWT III
     
  5. I made half a batch for PAC Spring 2007, and it was a nice way to use up a bottle of wine I'd opened for cooking. It's a very low maintenance sangria using ingredients we always have on hand. Thanks EmmyDuckie!

I work in the lab of a large county hospital. Cooking, particularly exotic ethnic cuisines and fancy desserts is my therapy and stress relief. Being a geeky kind of person, I'm really into the science of food. I'm getting into playing cooking games and contests on 'Zaar. Why not come play with us? It's lots of fun. <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/projects/200_PACpic.jpg"> <img src="http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c175/emmyduckie/teambanner1.gif"> <img src="http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/RSC%20Banners/RSC11-Participant.jpg"> <img src="http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c175/emmyduckie/babes_banner.gif"> <img src="http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/RSC%20Banners/RSCParticipationBanner.jpg"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PACfall08partic.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/ParticipationBanner.jpg"border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/Dollar%20Contest/DiningonaDollarParticipant.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Participation.jpg"> <img src="http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c175/emmyduckie/banner2009.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"width=100%> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/participantbannerzwt5.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/craze-e2banner.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/calendar%20clips/3Craze-E.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket">
