Sangria

Sangria always brings back memories of this really sweet guy who made the drink for me.

The first time i tasted it was on the Chilean's independence day. Hung out with a group of Chileans in a Chilean restaurant. They get really annoyed when I think that Chilean and mexican food are the same thing. Someone ordered Sangria. This pitcher of red drink. I was skeptical. It looks suspicious. Took a sip of it and I was immediately won over! haha.. had so much Sangria that night. It was really good. That was the best i ever had!

Since I liked it so much, this guy told me that he will make the drink for me some day. He said its really easy... just wine with some juices... now the thing is that people always say things like that. Nice things. But they rarely fufill it and you don't fault them cos it happens so often. But when someone remembers it and tries to fulfill it... i think its just so sweet.

Anyway, thats my story of Sangria. Its been such a long time. I don't know why but it just suddenly came to mind. haha.. totally irrelevant.

Kinda remembered having Sangria in Italy last year. It was really bad sangria. I bet they spiked it with vodka or something cos it tasted so.. urgh.. just so hard to down. And it gave me such a headache. Seriously, when in Italy, just stay with wine.
