The Sangria Shop

Open; Year-Round

About ten years ago we started  trying different recipes for Sangria for our own enjoyment and to entertain at our dinner parties.We were surprised about how many people started showing for our parties and asking about our Sangria.  In 2006 we moved to Portage, Michigan.  We missed our home Puerto Rico, so we started making Puerto Rican meals and of course drinks.  We made our Sangria for some friends and for our surprise they loved it, even those that did not drink wine.  Soon, We started making it for all our parties and our guests started telling that we should start selling the Sangria.

Well ,the first thing was to decide on a name.  We wanted a name that will get the customer attention and incite their curiosity, but at the same time a name that reflected our heritage.  We chose to name it Sangria Taina, after the native inhabitants of Puerto Rico, The Tainos.
