Cocktail Colin says:

5/5

Sangria pairs the deep, robust flavors of red wine with refreshing citrus notes and a hint of brandy warmth, creating a balanced and inviting drink that's both fruity and sophisticated. The addition of orange liqueur and sugar syrup enhances its sweetness, while the soda water introduces a light fizz that makes it particularly enjoyable on a warm day.
