Ingredients
Sangria
- 1 bottle dark red wine (I am using a Malbec for this recipe. See recipe for more suggestions.)
- 1/2 cup brandy
- 1/3 cup agave syrup
- 1 1/2 cups black seedless grapes washed and air dried
- 4 plums washed, stone removed, sliced
- 1 cup blackberries washed and air dried
- 1 cup fresh black cherries seeds removed and washed
- 1 cup pure grape juice substitute: blueberry, blackberry, or pomegranate juice
- sparkling water or ginger ale chilled
Garnish
- frozen black seedless grapes plum slices, and blackberries
Instructions
- Add the fruits into a large pitcher. Pour in the wine, brandy, agave syrup, and the juice. Give it a gently stir with a large spoon and refrigerate for at least two hours or until ready to serve.
- Fill a wind glass 3/4 full. Top with chilled sparkling water.
- Drop more frozen berries and plum slices in or skewer the frozen fruits and place across the top of the glass. The frozen fruit will keep the sangria chilled.

- Black Sangria is best served chilled. Keep in the refrigerator until serving.
- Make sure you let the sangria rest for at least two hours in the fridge before serving to let the flavors dance.
