I've been on a sangria kick, trying out all sorts of recipes, and this one is definitely a keeper.  This traditional red sangria recipe is truly one you'll want to make again and again.  Great for summer, great for winter, try it hot and add some spices - it's extremely versatile! Fruit, wine, sugar, brandy, it's all here, and it's freaking delicious.

For a lighter summer tipple, try it's sister, White Sangria!
