Sangria is a refreshing, fruit-filled wine punch that is perfect for parties or a relaxing evening at home. This classic Spanish drink is typically made with red wine, fruit, and a variety of spices. Here is a recipe for making red wine sangria:

* 1/2 cup brandy

* 1/4 cup orange juice

* 1/4 cup lime juice

* 1/4 cup lemon juice

* 1/4 cup sugar

* 1 cinnamon stick

* 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

* 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

* 1 orange, sliced

* 1 lime, sliced

* 1 lemon, sliced

* 1 cup of mixed fruit (such as strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and grapes)

Instructions:

1. In a large pitcher or punch bowl, combine the red wine, brandy, orange juice, lime juice, lemon juice, sugar, cinnamon stick, cloves, and nutmeg.

2. Stir until the sugar is dissolved.

3. Add the sliced orange, lime, and lemon.

4. Add the mixed fruit.

5. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight.

6. Serve chilled.

Tips:

* Use a fruity red wine, such as a Tempranillo or Grenache.

* If you don't have any brandy on hand, you can use cognac or rum instead.

* For a sweeter sangria, add more sugar to taste.

* For a spicier sangria, add more cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg to taste.

* You can also add other fruits to your sangria, such as pineapple, mango, or kiwi.

* Sangria is best enjoyed fresh, so try to drink it within 2-3 days of making it.
