Frequently Asked Questions
You can substitute the brandy or vodka with flavored liqueurs like peach schnapps or triple sec for a different twist. Alternatively, you can also use extra fruit juice or an additional flavored soda to keep it alcohol-free.
Store leftover sangria in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It will be best enjoyed within 2-3 days, but keep in mind the fruits may start to break down and lose their texture.
If your sangria tastes too sweet, you can balance it out by adding a splash of lemon or lime juice to enhance the acidity. Alternatively, add more red wine to dilute the sweetness.
