Unless you live under a rock, then you know that sangria is the drink of the summer. It sounds amazing to think about sitting on a patio after work on a Friday drinking sangria with people you love. So why not do exactly that? I really don't mean to burst your bubble but the summer is almost over and yes, it's acceptable to cry about it. But wipe away those tears, you poor thing, because I've made a list of the best sangria in Ottawa to help you get over this hard time. I'm not going to mention winter, but who wants to drink sangria in the frigid temperatures of -40? Not me. So get out there and try all of these delicious and unique drinks, of course, responsibly. via @eliburg Blue Cactus Grill // 2 ByWard Market Square Glass: $9.00 1/2 Litre: $19.99 Pitcher: $35.00 via @stephanie_annevans The Grand Pizzeria & Bar // 74 George Street Glass: $6.99 Pitcher: $24.99 via @eliseaze Kinki Lounge & Kitchen // 41 York Street Glass: $9.00 via @shabanalakhani Pure Kitchen // 340 Elgin Street, 357 Richmond Road Glass: $9.00 Pitcher: $25.00 via @skop99 Ace Mercado // 121 Clarence Street Glass: $12.00 Pitcher: $40.00 via @brittyharper Woody's Pub // 330 Elgin Street Glass: $8.75 Pitcher: $25.50 via @amanda.coxworth JOEY Lansdowne // 825 Exhibition Way #103 Glass: $8.50 via @chantalhackett Industria Italian Brasserie // 225 Marché Way #107 Glass: $10.00 Pitcher: $25.00 via @aliciacke Moscow Tea Room // 527 Sussex Drive Glass: $7.50 Pitcher: $35.00 via @boodzz Lieutenant's Pump // 361 Elgin Street Glass: $9.00 Pitcher: $29.95 via @emily.collard Union Local 613 // 315 Somerset Street West Glass: $10.00 via @evoogreekkitchen EVOO Greek Kitchen // 438 Preston Street Glass: $10.00 Pitcher: $34.00 Follow us on Snapchat: narcityottawa
