Mead sangria is a refreshing twist on the classic Spanish drink, blending the natural sweetness of honey-based mead with fresh fruits, juices, and a splash of brandy. Perfect for warm weather and social gatherings, this vibrant cocktail combines the rich, floral notes of mead with the bright, fruity flavours of traditional sangria.



Recipe
:

  • 1 bottle of mead
  • 1 cup of brandy
  • 1 orange (sliced)
  • 1 lemon (sliced)
  • 1 apple (cored and diced)
  • 1 cup of berries (strawberries, raspberries, etc.)
  • 2-3 tbsp honey (optional, to taste)
  • 1 cup of sparkling water or soda (optional)

Instructions:

  1. In a large pitcher, combine the mead, brandy, and honey (if using).
  2. Add the sliced fruit and berries.
  3. Stir well and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
  4. Before serving, add the sparkling water or soda for a bubbly effect.
  5. Serve in wine glasses over ice, with a slice of fruit as garnish.
Pair with: Grilled chicken skewers, fresh summer salads, or light tapas. The fruity and refreshing nature of the sangria complements light and fresh dishes.
