Did you know? . . . about Sangria

• Sangria is a punch that is very typical of Spain and Portugal.
• Wine is the main (or dominant) ingredient in sangria. Red wine is most commonly used.
• The word sangria actually means bleeding, and gets its name from the drink's bright red color. This color comes from the skins of the grapes used to make the red wine. 
• When white wine is used, it is called sangria blanca, meaning white sangria, and is obviously a white color.
