(1/2)    bottle of dry red Wine (375 ml) (I recommend Merlot)

1(1/2)  oz.       Cointreau

2          oz.        Brandy

2          tablespoons of each fruit (apple, orange, white grape, strawberry. papaya, pineapple)

6 to 8  oz.        Orange juice

3          tablespoons of White sugar

400     ml.        7-up

8 to 12              Ice cubes

- Cut the fruits like tiny boxes

- Pour ingredients in order in a jarr (1 litre), except for the 7-up and the ice cubes

- Mix the content of the jarr until sugar gets dissolved

- Put into fridge for 1 to 8 hours (2 to 6 recommended)

- After the chilling period, pour the ice cubes

- Finally pour the 7-up

NOTE 1: While the Sangria is drinked it shouldn't increase too much its tempaerature because there's a temp where the red wine tastes stronger and breaks the equilibrium of the Sangria. This is why it's very important to use the ice cubs wisely.

NOTE 2: Beware with the apple slices because they get dark very fast. To avoid this to happen, you should put the apple slices in water with some lemon juice.

NOTE 3: Don't forget to take off the grape the skin and the seeds. This is very important for the fruit to get its flavour correctly and to enhance the drink experience.

Glass: White or Red Wine (6 oz.)

- Orange spiral into or around the jarr
