A sangria “by Filipinos, for Filipinos”! You ready for this?
There are a lot of ways to prepare Sangria, but here’s a recipe perfect for the Pinoy palate: a very light colored rose, made using the sangiovese grape varietal, and flavor it with Filipino citrus including dalandan and calamansi. Sangiovese is known for strawberry notes, and these grow well in Baguio, so pop in a few of those. A sprig or two of fresh tarragon will really make this ‘pop’ in your mouth. If you can’t find a sangiovese rose, just opt for any lighter bodied red wine – pinot noir is a good choice.
This creation is perfect for your warm summer nights!
