📜 History

Sangria originated in Spain and Portugal, where the name comes from "sangre" (blood) referring to its deep red color. It became popular as a way to make inexpensive wine more palatable, with fruit and spices masking imperfections. Sangria gained international fame after being introduced at the 1964 World's Fair in New York.
