Sangria bites are a fun and unique way to serve up the popular summer drink. By using gelatin, we've transformed the classic sangria into bite-sized pieces that are easy to transport and enjoy at outdoor gatherings. The orange-flavored brandy adds a nice twist to this classic cocktail, and the addition of the fruit makes it a refreshing treat on a warm day. These bites are perfect for sharing with friends and family and are sure to be a hit at any summer party!

Instructions

1.	In a small bowl, combine the gelatin and simple syrup. Let it sit for a few minutes to bloom.
2.	Heat the red wine and orange-flavored brandy in a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the gelatin until it dissolves.
3.	Using one half of an orange, rub the peel around the wells of a mini muffin pan.
4.	Pour the gelatin mixture into the muffin wells and place the muffin pan in the fridge until fully set.
5.	Once set, remove the muffin pan from the fridge and, using a butter knife, pop the sangria bites out of the wells and onto a serving dish.

CONS

As they are bite-sized, it can be easy to lose track of how many have been consumed.

Due to the addition of gelatin, they may not be suitable for vegans or vegetarians.

HEALTH & BENEFITS

Red wine is known for its potential health benefits when consumed in moderation. It contains antioxidants such as resveratrol, which has been linked to reducing the risk of heart disease and certain cancers. However, it’s important to note that the amount of red wine in this recipe is minimal.
