Sangria Recipe?

Just got back from a holiday in Spain and my wife's after an authentic Sangria recipe. Can anyone help please???Sangria Recipe?
A very simple, basic sangria recipe. While this sangria is delicious as is, this recipe intentionally leaves ample room for improvisation and additions, and should therefore be used as a springboard to create your own unique sangria recipes. The unaltered basic sangria recipe below, however would meet with the approval of strict sangr铆a traditionalists.

Hi! I tell you a recipe learnt from a Spanish friend:


In a bowl mix:


Chopped apples (two or three)


One bottle of red wine


Half bottle of Bacardi


Half bottle of orangeade





If you have more guests double the recipe!
This is how I make it at my restaurant. Start with a large jug of red wine. Go for whatever is on sale because you are going to add lots of stuff. Add a cup or two of brandy. Brandy is made from grapes and fortifies the wine. Add cup of triple sec. This will add sweetness and some orange flavor but it shouldn't overpower the other ingredients. Add half cup of grenadine. This will add more sweetness and enrich the color so if you'd rather not have it so sweet either use less or omit.


If you use the grenadine add a cup or so of soda water. If no grenadine use 7 up. Cut a couple of lemons, limes, and oranges, into slices. Toss them in along with a jar of maraschino cherries including the juice. I doubt if I've ever made it exactly the same twice so just play with the amounts until you get the taste you like best.
