I just made this tonight. It is amazingly good! And ready right away. Although I might someday try the fresh fruit version, I don't know after trying this one. It is delicious?? I kept the entire recipe the same except for one thing......I used regular Splenda for the sugar. Still awesome to me!!

Excellent recipe, everyone always asks for this recipe when I serve it. I also toss in some fresh fruit to make this the drink that keeps on giving!

Excellent and easy to make. I made it with fresh squeezed OJ and lemon juice, Shiraz wine, cognac, splenda (1 cup instead of 2), and diet lemon lime soda (didn't have club soda and this made up for cutting the sugar). Just my ways of using what I had on hand, and cutting some of the calories! Also floated orange slices in the punch. Everyone loved it!

This is a great recipe. We added some lime juice to taste instead of lemon. We have served this at a ribbon cutting and keno party and it was a huge hit both times.

Awesome sangria recipe!! I recommend using half the amount of sugar called for in the recipe. Definitely give it a try though!

This recipe is really easy, and I got lots of compliments on it! FYI one bottle of wine = a little over 3 cups of wine. The recipe filled a standard-sized pitcher, including fruit. If you use 2 cups of pre-made lemonade instead of lemon juice like I did, you can just put in 1/2 cup sugar (and add more to taste if you want). I used two-buck Chuck shiraz, which worked really well, and cut up an orange, apple, and pear to float. I lived in Spain for awhile, and this tastes a lot closer to the real deal than I expected! :) gracias

This was excellent! 1 bottle of red wine does not get you 4 cups of wine, so I just used one bottle. I also sub. ginger ale for club soda. Rave reviews. I am printing 5 copies to hand out to the people who came to my international party.

I was looking for a quick version on sangria since I didn't have time to let it sit over night. Tried this and was pleasantly suprised. The only change I made was using leomonade (what I had on hand) instead of lemon juice. I did reduce the sugar by 1/2c since the leomonade was already sweetened. Added a sliced lemon and orange and let it sit in the fridge for a couple of hours. Nice refreshing drink on a hot summer evening. My guests enjoyed it!
