I made the Sangria today and wasn’t sure what to expect but it turned out delicious! I mixed it up this morning so it could meld in the fridge all day. I am not much of a juice drinker (prefer the whole fruit) but I usually have orange juice and cranberry juice in the house so that is what I used. I didn’t really measure but probably used about equal parts of each. For fruit I put in some lemon slices, a few raspberries, blueberries, strawberries and grapes. My favorite fruit turned out to be the lemon slices. They really picked up the juice and had an excellent flavor. I think orange and lime slices would have been good as well. It is a very flexible recipe and there are plenty of juice/fruit combinations you could try. My photos turned out pretty bad but they give you a bit of idea of what it looked like. If you want the liquid to be clear then best not to use orange juice but it sure gave it a good flavor.

Your description & pictures make me want to try the recipe. We weren't going to make it because we aren't juice drinkers here either, but we may have to give it a try. Thanks for the review. I like the combo that you tried.
Looks so pretty!
