Red Wine Sangria

Red Wine Sangria makes the perfect drink for the holiday season. So easy to make and really easy to pour, a pitcher of sangria will make you and expert hostess

A punch, sangria traditionally consists of red wine and chopped fruit. My version also includes brandy, orange juice and brown sugar.

I did not use an expensive wine but a good quality. Just like when you have a recipe that requires wine, cook with what you would drink. Cheers.
