Ingredients

Instructions

  • In a large pitcher or punch bowl, combine the grapes, figs, pears, apples, oranges, blackberries, and the red wine.
  • Gently press some of the fruit against the sides of the pitcher using a wooden spoon to release flavor.
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to 6 hours for a deeper infusion.
  • Before serving, stir in the sparkling blood orange soda and pear brandy.
  • Pour over ice and garnish each glass with a mix of the soaked fruit for a colorful fall presentation.

Notes

Pro Tips

  • Choose a bold California red like Zinfandel or Cabernet Sauvignon for a rich base.
  • Let the sangria chill longer (up to 24 hours) for deeper fruit infusion.
  • Swap sparkling grapefruit juice with blood orange soda for a slightly sweeter variation.
