INSTRUCTIONS
My husband is from Spain and this is how he makes Sangria . . . In a large
pitcher, pour a bottle of wine. Add sliced fruit, leaving room for soda.
Add sugar to taste. Add a shot of brandy, if you like. Add soda right
before serving (not hours in advance). If you mix the fruit and wine
together in advance, the sangria will have a more fruity flavor but the
fruit will be discolored (still tastes fine). The proportion of wine to
soda will depend on your personal taste, how good the wine is, how strong
you want the sangria to be, and how carbonated you want it. I think that we
use a two or three to one ratio. If you have a big enough pitcher, you
could always add more wine from the second bottle.
