Sangría can be prepared with cheap wine and taste good, but in sangrías as in everything, quatily pays off. You can create an astounding drink just by using decent quality wine.

No sauce, no wine; this is a variation of the menestra Monterrey recipe; we use the same technique.

First quality healthy vegetables are the main ingredients for this recipe.

This type of menestra is a meal on its own. To serve as an appetizer, halve the meat or just skip it. You can also change the vegetables to suit your taste. Stewing meat and vegetables together keeps the food moist. The result is a succulent dish, perfectly cooked and not dry at all.

This simple recipe can be adapted for speed cooking by using prepared or frozen vegetables. Good quality, fresh vegetables make this recipe really special, but frozen vegetables are better than no vegetables.

This recipe for low calorie sangria sparkler has all the taste of traditional sangria without all the calories. Try this refreshing summer drink.
