Ingredients:  
1.5 L Red wine (Cabernet Sauvignon)
1 cup Sugar
3-4 oz plain Brandy
1 large Lemon, sliced
1 large Orange, sliced
1 large Apple, cut into thin sections.
Directions:
Directions:
Mix all ingredients together in a large container, stir, and let sit for 18-24 hours. Yes, I know that's a LONG time, but it's well worth the wait. A much more delightful sangria is produced when the fruit juice blends with the wine by osmosis than by stirring. (By the way, you should let it sit in the refrigerator during this long interim). When you are ready to drink it 18-24 hours later, stir it up again, and add sugar or brandy to taste, it should be fairly strong and fairly sweet, almost syrupy. Then, cut the mixture with some sort of bubbly water, orange or lemon flavored if possibly, but plain bubbly water is fine, until it seems to have a thinner, more wine like consistency. Drink and enjoy!

Personal Notes:
Sometimes i change this up.

I used the gallon bottle of Sangria wine. 1 cup Sugar, plus 1 1/2 cups of sugar syrup (boil 2cups of water and 2 1/2 sugar, and let cool) Note: you can keep sugar syrup in your refrigerator for other drinks. In addition to the brandy, I add maybe 1/2 cup to 1 cup of Triple Sec
