I've tried other sangia recipes and this is by far my favorite. Other sangrias are often heavy on the alcohol and leave you more than a bit tipsy after a glass or two. I followed the suggestions of other reviewers to use peach brandy in place of regular brandy and the results were wonderful. This recipe has the perfect balance of alcohol and flavors and is an excellent choice for a summer barbeque. *I also tried Ellie's recipe for white sangria which is exactly the same except using white wine. Excellent as well!

One of the best sangria recipes I have had. I was a bit nervous to try this b/c the last sangria I made was from Ingrid Hoffman and it made me so sick I was hung over the loo for hours. But this sangria is wonderful. It's not too strong and overpowering but it has enough kick to put you in a good mood! I love Ellie Krieger -- why is she never on the FN anymore...I don't get it? Anyway, this recipe is, as usual, another winner from Ellie. You won't be disappointed with this one...or sick for that matter!

I used a pinot noir and peach snapps instead of brandy, and let the alcohol mix refrigerate for 24hrs. before serving. Big hit at a wedding shower!
