Sparkling Sangria is a refreshing drink, perfect for starting your New Year’s Eve celebrations with a group of friends.
This bubbly fruity cocktail is made in a pitcher, created using one bottle of champagne or sparkling wine per batch.
It’s not suitable to make in advance as you don’t want it to lose the fizz.
However, you can prepare much of it ahead of time, so that when guests arrive you only need to add the bubbles and the ice and you’re good to go.
A great cocktail for festive celebrations, but as Spanish sangria is usually familiar to people as a vacation tipple.
This also makes it perfect for a gathering on a summer’s evening.
