I love the spice of love recipe. I had, what I considered, the recipes of all recipes from a long lost friend in Mexico and this is the closest to that. Just one question. How come John didn’t use the agave instead of sugar for this one? Any reason?

I would use Cointreau instead of Triple Sec, since it tastes so much better. Triple Sec is a cheaper knock off of Cointreau, which is very noticable in the taste. Just a small tip. Otherwise — lovely cocktail!

my Real sangría recipe:
brown sugar
pieces of fruit (oranges, peaches, apples, and kiwis are my recomendations, but all of them are wellcome!)
1 red wine bottle (no need to be a good one it is enough if it doesn’t stings while swallowing!)
natural orange juice (squeeze 8 oranges)
natural lemon juice (squeeze 4 lemons)
a pinch of cinamon to make it “afrodisiac”
some red martini, cointreau, vodka or whatever u have at home, to make it stronger and more tasty
