If you're looking for a name with fresh, fruity, summer vibes, Sangria is a unique choice. This untraditional baby name is considered feminine and is best known for the alcoholic punch made from fruit, wine, and soda water. Sangria is a Spanish and Portuguese word that means "a bleeding" and derives from the Latin sanguis, meaning "blood," lending the name a deep red undertone. Sangria, the beverage, is said to date back to the early Romans and Greeks, who mixed watered-down wine with spices and sugar, as it was safer to drink than water back then. While the commercial production of sangria must, by European law, be in Spain or Portugal, most will agree that the tastiest sangria is homemade. Just like no two sangrias are made the same, your little Sangria will be one-of-a-kind.
