Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a large pitcher, combine 1 bottle (750 ml) dry white wine, 1/4 cup brandy, 1/2 cup orange juice, and 2 tbsp granulated sugar. Stir gently until the sugar dissolves.
  2. Step 2: Add 1 medium orange, 1 medium lemon, and 1 medium lime, all thinly sliced, along with 10 fresh mint leaves, lightly torn to release aroma.
  3. Step 3: Refrigerate the sangria for at least 2 hours to allow flavors to meld and fruit to infuse.
  4. Step 4: Just before serving, add 1 cup chilled club soda to the pitcher and stir gently to combine for a sparkling finish.
  5. Step 5: Serve over ice cubes and garnish with additional citrus slices or mint sprigs if desired.
