Nice summer drink. It was similar to the sangria de cava I had in Barcelona last summer, minus the strawberries and mint, and maybe a tad too sweet. I skipped the strawberries/mint & added a few raspberries instead, more for color than flavor. I like the other reviewer's suggestion of nectarine. Really, any light, in season fruit will do, as it's more for decoration than flavor. Next time I will skip or halve the simple sugar.

This was disappointing. Made exactly as written it just tastes like champagne with strawberries . Sorry, but I'm not sure why this one's called sangria. The addition of a generous amount of apricot brandy really helped the flavor but I am deleting this and wont make it again. First time Bobby Flay has underwhelmed me. :(

I first served this for a group of medical students at a year end party and they loved it--had to make a couple of batches. Since then it has been a regular--great ice breaker when guests arrive. Use fruit appropriate to the occasion. tomorrow is the Tree Trimming and it will have raspberries and dried cranberries with thinly sliced green apple. BTW--I never use simple syrup. I think it makes it too sweet.
