Frequently asked questions

How strong is a Sangria?
The published Sangria recipe contains alcohol, but a calculated ABV is not currently available. Check the listed spirit and liqueur measures above rather than treating missing ABV data as an alcohol-free claim.
How much Sangria should I make?
Punch recipes scale easily — multiply each ingredient by the number of guests. Allow roughly one 150–200ml serving per person per hour. Mix everything except sparkling elements at least an hour ahead and add ice and soda just before serving to preserve carbonation.
