Add most of the mint in the glass and enough sake to fill. Mix the mint before adding the mixture to the pitcher together with the remainder of the sake. Next, you can add a large amount of ice. Once this makes the sangria cool and refreshing, clean the glass’s rim by slicing a slice of tangerine and wrapping the rims with sugar. Pour the sangria into glasses, and top with a slice of tangerine. Garnish with mint leaves.
