Blood orange white sangria
-- juicy, glowing-red blood oranges, the sultans of citrus.
Delicate and nuanced, this blood orange sangria combines the rosy fresh-squeezed juice with white Spanish wine (a Rueda would be perfect), Cinzano Bianco and less sugar than other recipes might call for. The blood orange juice’s natural sweetness makes it a delicious mixer, and using white wine rather than red allows the color to shine and the lighter flavors to come through.
From the story: A ruby glow in winter
In a large bowl or pitcher, combine the wine, blood orange juice, Cinzano Bianco and sugar. Stir in the orange slices.
Cover and chill 1 to 2 hours to blend flavors. Stir in the lime slices and serve.
