We have a lot of great Cuban and Spanish Restaurants in Tampa and our favorite is Cafe Don Jose.

They do their terrific Sangria this way:

A half bottle of red Spanish wine - some decent wine. I tasted it before mixing and it was not too dry - very fruity.

2.5 oz. of Brandy

Muddled fruit - mostly oranges but a few grapes, limes, a couple of sprigs of mint, and some cherries if I remember correctly

A teaspoon of sugar

They swizzle it in the pitcher with ice and strain into a sugared wine glass.
