Preparation
Step 1
Stir together the wine, orange juice, sugar, and brandy in a large pitcher until the sugar is dissolved. Then add in the orange, lemon and lime slices and stir briefly to combine.
Step 2
Refrigerate the pitcher and let it sit, preferably 8-12 hours for the juices to meld.
Step 3
Just before serving, stir in the ginger ale (or club soda, or lemon-lime soda) until mixed. Then serve the sangria poured over ice, either strained or served with the fruit slices.
Step 4

Chef's notes
For a sweeter sangria, consider adding sugar or another sweetener to taste.
Feel free to experiment with different fruits such as berries or apples.
The longer you let the sangria sit, the more pronounced the fruity flavors will become.
