I think you may have a bottle of Sangria Mix and you just add your Alcohol of choice. It also maybe a wine Sangria and not to much alcohol in the taste.
You can go to Yahoo search under, "Sangria Non Alcoholic" and get a lot of recipes , for non Alcoholic Sangria. and you can make it to fit your taste.
Good Luck !
as far as i know it has to have wine so yes it has alcohol
they should be

the simplest is orange juice and red wine

add tripple sec and lime juice or whatever fancy stuff if you have it and can afford it
As far as I know all sangria's are alcoholic. They are usually made from a combination of pureed fruit, wine (usually red) and tequila/vodka....
There's not much alcohol in it, but you use wine to make sangria.
Yes, they all have alcohol in them. One of the best "sangria" style drinks I've had is at Applebee's...it's the White Peach Sangria. It has in it...
3 oz. White Zin
1oz. Peach Schnapps
1oz. orange juice
1 oz Pineapple juice
2oz. sprite
throw in orange slices, cherries, apple balls (soaked in pineapple juice), and lime slices
VERY GOOD!!
technically, yes. i've never heard of salsa in sangrias but if you didn't want to drink while pregnant, you made the right move by spitting it out.
if you are a fan of sangria, i've made virgin sangria using club soda and grape juice instead of wine.
Sangria is alcoholic, it is a wine but it often gets mixed with fruits (oranges, melons, berries) which absorb some of the alcohol and sometimes a carbonated water gets used. If you're pregnant, I'm not saying not to drink it but use caution. Make your one drink last then after that just enjoy the flavored mineral waters. it is the long term and habitual drinking of alcohol that will affect the fetus not the occasional drink. Check with your Dr. but I seriously doubt that one drink a month of wine will do any damage. Point two, True alcohol has no scent, you're just smelling the other componets to the Sangria, the grape!
I have never heard of a Virgin Sangria. To my knowledge, all are alcoholic
Sangria is a wine. It is fermented grapes. It is alcoholic Cindy. A sangria w/a salsa taste though does not seem right. There must have been something wrong with it. A glass of Sangria or wine will not hurt you in moderation even if you are pregnant. Sangria to me tastes better as a punch. I add 7 up, some orange, apple, lemon and lime slices. The 7 up tones it down. Wine has iron in it and can help blood circulation.
I have never seen a non-alcoholic Sangria. Other wines yes, but not Sangria.
