I love Sangria! It’s great on a hot summer night. I’ll have to try your recipe, minus the brandy, though.

Oh my. That sangria looks sooo tasty! Hehe…When the page first loaded I thought I’d accidentally clicked on something a little porno, until my brain registered the ice and the rest of what it was. But that’s probably because I love sangria *that* much.
Thanks for sharing the recipe, will definitely have to try it!

Why, that sounds like a fun drink to share with friends–I’m going to show this to my husband, the Belgian Wonder, and ask him to make it this weekend!
