- 1 ruby grapefruit, thinly sliced
- 1 lemon, thinly sliced

Begin by macerating the fruit. Add half of the apples, grapefruit, lemon, blood orange and pears to a large pitcher and squeeze the lemon juice on top. Muddle the fruit using a wooden spoon. Add the remaining half of the fruits. Pour over the red wine, grappa, orange liqueur and stir. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge for 2 hours, or overnight if time allows. Add the orange juice and simple syrup, and then top off with the chilled club soda before serving.

Delish!!!! Made it for a BBQ over Labor Day weekend. Everyone LOVED it. I doubled the fruit, not necessary though. I kept adding bottles of wine without adding the other liquids as the sangria disappeared. It was good both ways, but since it was such a hit, in the future, I'll be prepared and have the other liquids ready as well. Thanks, Guy!
