Ah, Sangria At Last In Virginia
Posted by Bill on January 31, 2008
Sangria Allowed
I am sure as a result of our prior posts on the prohibition of Sangria in the Commonwealth, the General Assembly decided to make Sangria legal in restaurants–no doubt about it. See Prior Post
Senate Passes Bill to Throw Out Sangria Ban See Post Story
“The Virginia Senate passed a bill yesterday to allow restaurants to sell sangria that includes brandy, triple sec or a similar spirit, a mixture that is banned by state law.
Sangria, which is served at many Spanish restaurants, is generally made with wine and fruit but often includes a small amount of spirits. The Senate bill would change a law that prohibits the mixing of wine and spirits. A similar bill is advancing through the House of Delegates.”
