Forget food trucks, this couple started their own homemade sangria truck

The truck launched in December of 2018 and functions as a mobile mixology laboratory of sorts.

Forget everything you know about food trucks.

Lauren and Brandon Henry of Jacksonville, Florida, have taken the food truck concept and tweaked it to cater to those who crave a delicious handmade beverage.

Their brainchild, The Sangria Truck, launched in December of 2018 and functions as a mobile mixology laboratory of sorts. They offer champagne, kombucha on tap, and signature sangria creations made with fresh fruit juices, herbs and elixirs.

Not to mention, the all-inclusive mini-camper turned bar is basically Instagram heaven.  Flaunting a bohemian-meets-palm-springs vibe, the truck is set up with wicker chairs, plush decor and tons of adorable details.

"Florida needs more refreshing cocktails and cuter trucks, so we put them both together," Lauren Henry says.
