1

Mix wine, sugar, brandy, lemons, oranges and apples in a large container. Chill, covered, for 18-24 hours, stirring occasionally.

2

Just before serving, stir again and taste, adding more sugar or brandy if desired. It should have a strong flavor and be fairly sweet (almost syrupy).

3

Add 1 liter of the bubbly water, stirring until the sangria has a thinner, more wine-like consistency and adding additional bubbly water as needed.

4

Pour into glasses. Be sure to garnish with fruit on the side of the glass, or spiked onto a drink stirrer.
