Steps

  1. 1
    In a large jug, stir the sugar into the brandy and orange juice until it has dissolved.
  2. 2
    Add the orange, lemon and apple and press them lightly with a wooden spoon to start the juices running.
  3. 3
    Pour in the wine, stir, cover and refrigerate for 2 to 12 hours; much longer and the citrus pith turns the sangria bitter.
  4. 4
    Just before serving, add a handful of ice and top up with the chilled soda water.
  5. 5
    Stir once and pour into ice-filled wine glasses or tumblers, spooning some of the fruit into each.
