No, it isn't. "Sangre" is the vampire drink, sangria is a wine punch. 10/27/23

Jenny's Gone On Vacation Thanks for sharing! Let's find out. In general, sangria is an alcoholic drink. But in the strictest sense, sangria means "bloodletting" in Spanish and in Portuguese. By definition, it is to withdraw blood: Bloodletting: "the surgical removal of some of a patient's blood for therapeutic purposes." https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloodletting -
dalcocono San·gri·a /saNG??r??/ noun 1. a Spanish drink of red wine mixed with lemonade, fruit, and spices: "can't choose between a margarita and a sangria?" The vampire would probably choose the sangre -
Jenny's Gone On Vacation I am not saying sangria alcohol is literally blood, but that sangria in its precise meaning is bloodletting based on Spanish and Portuguese. What then do you think is the definition of "sangre?" Definition please!

dalcocono Sangre is blood, sangria is a wine cooler. We can buy it at just about any store that sells wine.
-
Jenny's Gone On Vacation Neither am I saying or asking what sangria alcohol means. The word sangria takes the name from the word sangre which means blood.
-
dalcocono Sure, because of it's color most likely. Not because it's bloody.
-
Jenny's Gone On Vacation Read carefully, (I agree sangria alcohol is not blood). It's where the word sangria comes from. The word sangria certainly does not take the name from the word "agua" for water. It comes from sangre/blood.
-
dalcocono Yes it does, but the root word does not make the cocktail blood. Sangria is a wine cocktail. Ask any Mexican about it. I have read and understood the etymology of the word since your first post. I see clearly what you're getting at, but I still don't think the vampire will want it.

Jenny's Gone On Vacation Quote: "but the root word does not make the cocktail blood." Who is saying that sangria alcohol mixed with lemonade, fruit and spices is literally blood?????????????? I'm going by the word bloodletting in sangria, which is based on the Spanish word sangre to define blood. Also, notice how I mentioned the word "supposedly" in my question. If I buy a vampire mouth guard and drink sangria, will it mean I am a vampire???
-
Jenny's Gone On Vacation BTW, there wouldn't be a "root word" if the Spanish word sangre did not exist. LOL *Facepalm*
-
dalcocono Sangre exists, no argument there, sangria also exists, no argument there, sangria is not the beverage the vampires crave though. Regardless of the etymology of the word, it is still a wine cocktail and that isn't the drink preferred by the vampires.

dalcocono Mira, una sangria; https://www.youtube.com/shorts/u8JxoFKLAMk

Jenny's Gone On Vacation The word sangre not only exists, but it is the definition of blood. It gives meaning to any word that has to do with sangre. From the Spanish word sangre, we get sangria. If the Spanish word sangre did not exist, from what other word will "sangria" come from??? It is a simple question.
-
Jenny's Gone On Vacation To the YouTube link you added, it is futile to add it. Again and again, I am not saying sangria alcohol is blood. I can keep repeating this many times. I'm referring to the word itself.
-
dalcocono Yes, you keep saying the same thing I'm saying. Except you seem to need to argue about it. Copy paste the link and search. it is not futile.
-
Jenny's Gone On Vacation Quote: "Copy paste the link and search. it is not futile." It is totally futile, since I agreed the very first time you added the definition of the word sangria. That was out of the way. What I have been arguing, from what Spanish word does sangria take its form?
-
dalcocono Your original question is "is sangria a supposedly vampire drink"? My answer is no, sangria is a wine cocktail. Blood is the vampires prefered drink. If you agreed with me the first time, why all the argumentative comments?
-
dalcocono If you used the link, you would watch a little Mexican lady making sangria, sin sangre, in her cocina and sharing the recipe.
-
Jenny's Gone On Vacation If you had read the question properly, you would see I mentioned the word "supposedly." I also mentioned the word in the comments, saying it gives me or perhaps other people dressed as a vampire a sense to be somewhat of a vampire by wearing a vampire mouth guard and drinking sangria. Once again, and I will keep repeating myself, even if we're here for months discussing sangria, being you are my guest, and I have to address everything you say. It will be unreasonable of me not to address your comments. I will say it again: I agree sangria is an alcoholic drink, mixed with lemonade, fruit and spices. But where does the Spanish word sangria take its form??????????????
-
dalcocono You go girl. Now that you clarify the entire thing with a costume it all makes perfect sense. Nos ve mos
-
Jenny's Gone On Vacation Have a good day!
-
dalcocono Igualmente. Feliz noche de las brujas
