Need great Sangria recipe - Tiki Drinks and Food

Two out of three times, I develop a headache after (or even while) drinking sangria. Be it my own recipe or dining out at gen-u-wine Cuban, Mexican, or Spanish restaurants. Love the taste, hate the headaches. Several friends feel the same way and believe it has something to do with all the sugar and fructose. Can anyone shed any light on this phenomenon? Are we crazy? Also, this isn't an "I drank too much" hangover thing as none of us ever drink more than two in a sitting. -Joe
