    • Cook's Notes:

    Adding sliced seasonal fruit is optional but highly recommended. To make a double batch of sangria, use 2 oranges, 2 lemons, 2 cups sugar, 6 1/3 cups (50 3/4 ounces) dry white wine, and 6 1/3 cups (50 3/4 ounces) dry red wine. Add fruit as desired. To make a 2-gallon batch for a large crowd (5 times the recipe), use 10 bottles of wine.
