Does anyone have a great Sangria recipe?

The best recipes are when you experiment with the ingredients you like and come up with your own. Get 2 bottles of a wine you like, slice up fruit you like, add sugar if you like it sweet, add bitters if you like it bitter, add fruit flavored liquors if you want, let it set in the refrigerator over night and enjoy!!!
