Traditional sangria is comprised of fresh fruit and wine. If you love sangria, then make this drink even more special by adding in some grill flavor. When you grill fruit it becomes sweeter from the carmelization process of the natural sugars. The caramelized fruit and wine make for a delicious combination.
