Lauren’s Quick Tips

• Make this the day before and add club soda when serving
• Change up the fruit for a variation. Plums, pears, and berries are all good choices.
• If you don’t have brandy-don’t sweat it—t will still be delish
• Use an inexpensive pinot noir (lighter) or cabernet sauvignon for this red fall sangria
• If you’d like to garnish the glasses, use a sprig of rosemary, or an orange slice
