It depends; however, do not waste money on quality. The liquor, sugar, and juices will destroy the wine regardless of it's high price. Although, I suggest mixing a 1.5:0.5 ratio of red and white together. Whichever types you choose, buy cheap bottles... for example, perhaps a $5 Burgundy and Sauvignon Blanc. Mix with 6 oz's each of brandy, triple sec, simple sugar, Orange Juice and cranberry juice. Serve it ice cold... no need to let it sit. Add apple and orange slices for garnish. I promise this will refresh! It also makes A LOT... plenty for an afternoon with friends or family... and will set you back most likely about $35 (2 bottles red, $10; 1 bottle white, $5; brandy, $8; triple sec, $7; orange juice, $2.50; cranberry juice, $2.50).

OR! Prosecco and peach schnapps with a butt load of sliced fruit (peaches, raspberries, etc.) This will be best hours after letting the fruit and peach schnapps settle together. Add the prosecco last to preserve its carbonation.

You can add almost anything, it just depends on what kind of wine you'll be using as your base and what kind of flavor profile you want to achieve. Traditionally, Sangria is made with red wine and Spanish brandy. However you can also substitute spiced rum or cognac in place of the brandy. You can also make Sangria Blanco which is made with white wine and either apple brandy or white rum.

I have, and it is delicious. Try using:2 bottles of red wineChopped fruit such as peaches, strawberries, raspberries, oranges, lemon1/2 to 1 pint of brandy or orange liqueurReally, though, I think you can use any Sangria recipe and just let it age. I aged mine for two weeks and then added either soda water or 7-Up (personal preference) when serving. The flavor of the fruit made this a sensational summer sipper. I would definitely recommend aging your sangria.
