Andrea’s Amazing Sangria

Ingredients:

• 1 Gallon Jug of Sangria Wine (if you can’t find Sangria wine, a dry red wine would work)
• 1/5 bottle of brandy (750ml)
• 1 Quart Fresh Orange Juice
• 1 Quart Fresh Squeezed Lemonade
• Splash Sparkling Water

A combination of some or all of the following fruits:

• Apple (diced)
• Pear (diced)
• Peach (diced)
• Strawberries (diced)
• Blueberries
• Grapes (halved or quartered)

Method:

Combine all of the prepared fruits in a container and add a combination of sangria wine and brandy (about 2/3 to 1/3) to cover the fruit.  Soak for several hours or overnight.

Combine all other ingredients in a large container to make the sangria.

When ready to serve, fill a pitcher with ice and pour the sangria mixture in.  Add some of the fruit (may also add lemon and/or lime wheels at this time).

Serve in a glass filled with ice and top with some of the fruit mixture.
