Ingredients

  • 500ml red wine

  • 2 oranges, 1 lemon, ½ peach

  • 1 cinnamon stick

  • 50ml brandy

  • Soda or sparkling water

  • Sugar, if desired

Method

  1. Prepare the juice: Juice one orange and half the lemon, then set aside.

  2. Slice the fruit: Thinly slice half of the remaining orange, the lemon half, and the peach. Cut into small triangles. Keep a small handful of chopped fruit and the final orange half for serving.

  3. Combine in the carafe: Add the remaining chopped fruit to your handmade glassware carafe with the cinnamon stick, orange juice, lemon juice, and brandy. Add sugar syrup if you prefer a sweeter sangria.

  4. Add the wine: Pour in the red wine and mix gently. Chill in the fridge for a couple of hours, or overnight for a deeper infusion.

  5. Serve beautifully: Place chopped fruit at the bottom of a tall handmade glass, add two large ice cubes, pour over the sangria, and finish with soda or sparkling water for a light fizz.
