I enjoy sangria and this recipe sounded really good. Found on MyRecipes.com and originated from Cooking Lights magazine. Refrigeration time is cooking time.

8 3/4 cup (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 (1 1/2 liter) bottle dry red wine, divided
2 tablespoons brandy
2 tablespoons triple sec (orange-flavored liqueur)
1/3 cup sugar
2/3 cup fresh orange juice
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
5 whole cloves
3 whole allspice
1 (3 inch) cinnamon sticks
2 cups sparkling water, chilled
8 orange wedges
5 lemon slices
5 lime slices

Directions

1
In a 2 quart glass measure, add 1/2 cup wine, brandy, Triple Sec, and sugar. Place in microwave and heat on high for 1 minute or until mixture is warm. Stir, dissolving sugar, and add remaining wine, juices, cloves, allspice, and cinnamon.
2
Chill for at least 2 hours and strain into a pitcher discarding spices. Stir in sparkling water and remaining ingredients, serve immediately.

Loved it - but look at the ingredients!!! What's not to love??? I really think the brandy and the triple sec (actually, I used Cointreau) made this rendition special and potent. The spice mix was perfect.

*Made for Australia/NZ Swap #26 * — SOOO sorry to be late, but this was an exellent companion for a lovely fillet mignon ! I prepare 1/2 recipe and used 1 Tbsp peach brandy instead of orange, (was what I had), and a tad less sugar. DH and i really enjoyed this, and will keep as our Go To sangria recipe for summer meals. Thanks, Lauralie41, for posting this most satisfying sangria !

We loved this sangria recipe. I halved the recipe, using one 750 ml bottle of red wine, since there were only two of us. I used a pinch of ground allspice and a pinch of cinnamon because I didn't have the whole versions. We really enjoyed the flavors...the hint of cinnamon, triple sec, brandy....all perfect together. I will definitely make this sangria recipe again. Thank you!!
