Absolutely fantastic recipe. We need to see more from Santos Loo. Every now and then you catch a glimpse of him doing behind the scenes stuff on Iron Chef America. But I think its time he step forward and share more of his culinary point of view with america. This was the best sangria I have ever had hands down. the cinnamon was a great touch. For those having trouble finding purple corn check any latin american grocery store. I found two kinds, one made by GOYA, and another by PERU FOOD. I believe they both have web sites. Good luck.
