I just tasted it - it comes off a bit sweet, but ice in my glass will help that. I think this is a very nice, simple version of sangria, and will use it again. I only used one cup of rum, but that was plenty for me.

I've gotten so many compliments on this when I make it (usually for large groups) even from those who don't like "sweet" alcoholic drinks. I tried cutting the sugar in half, like other reviewers have said, but was told it wasn't sweet enough. I also add chopped apples (I chop the oranges, but leave the lemons and limes in slices so people don't bite into them thinking they are oranges!). I've used spiced and regular rum as well as blackberry and regular Merlot (at different times) and all are wonderful! For those who don't want such a "strong" taste, we add Sprite or 7-Up to the glasses afterward.

Great recipe! I have used this several times. Last time I used smoking loon cabernet with a blackberry flavor. This time MadHouse Wife Cabernet, but wished I had used there Merlot has more of a blackberry flavor. I also had to make a non-alcoholic batch so I used a 64oz bottle of Red Grape juice instead of the wine and rum, perfect!

I made this for a summer party and it was gone within 15 minutes!! It was so yummy! Watch out if you use soft fruit (strawberries, plums, etc.), they are lethal!!

Excellent Recipe! I doubled it and added plums, maraschino cherries, grapes, and it was fabulous! I also added a bag of frozen strawberries that chilled it and added flavor, too. Big hit!!

After following the directions...it was quite strong. But after adding another bottle of red wine...much better. Easy to make and tasted good.

I love this drink! It looks pretty in the pitcher, it tastes wonderful, and it's fun to serve! I used Tortuga spiced rum and Barefoot Merlot (they support Surfrider Foundation!). This was pretty strong- much better for a night at home than taking somewhere and driving afterwards. Today I only let the fruit soak in the rum for about 3 hours, but next time I will let it soak overnight to get a stronger effect.

Excellent recipe! I used this recipe as a base and added the ingredients to my taste. The trick is letting the fruit and rum refrigerate together. Refreshing!

This was great; my mistake was too not print out the recipe and try to remember it! I added 1 cup sugar instead of 1/2 cup and it was a little too sweet! We still drank it. I let the fruit, wine and rum mellow in the fridge for about 4 hours! I'll try again and follow the directions better next time! :)

I added apples, strawberries, and pineapple. Doubled the recipe, but used 1/2 the rum (Capt Morgan spiced rum)called for. SO GOOD, we drank every last drop!

The rum is what makes this Sangria taste like REAL Spanish sangria. Be sure to use a really good dark rum to give it a yummy full taste.
