Just look at this masterpiece! Can you say ‘delicious’? Prepare yourself, because this sangria is about to become your new summer obsession.

Ingredients

Let’s gather our troops—uh, I mean, ingredients. Here’s what you’ll need to whip up this delightful concoction:

1 bottle of red wine (something you wouldn’t mind drinking straight - trust me, it makes a difference!)
1 cup fresh blackberries (or you can pretend to be fancy and use frozen ones)
1/2 cup brandy
1/4 cup orange liqueur (because why not?)
1/4 cup sugar (adjust depending on how sweet you want to get)
1 orange, sliced (for that “look at me, I’m classy!” vibe)
1 lemon, sliced (because balance is key)
2 cups soda water (or lemon-lime soda if you prefer it sweeter)
Ice (obviously, you don’t want warm sangria—what are we, animals?)

Instructions

Now that you have everything you need, let’s dive into the magical world of sangria-making. Buckle up, it’s a wild ride!

In a large pitcher, combine the red wine, brandy, orange liqueur, and sugar. Stir it like you mean it until the sugar finds peace and dissolves.
Add those glorious blackberries, orange slices, and lemon slices. Give it all a good stir to get those fruity flavors mingling.
Cover your pitcher and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least two hours. This is where the magic (and flavors) meld together like best friends at a summer camp.
When you’re ready to serve, add the soda water just to keep it bubbly and pour over ice into your favorite glass. You know, the one that screams “I have style!”
For an extra touch, garnish with a few extra berries or a slice of citrus for that “Instagram-worthy” finish!

And voila! You’ve successfully created a delightful pitcher of Easy Blackberry Sangria. Now sit back, soak in the sunshine, and enjoy the fruits of your labor. Cheers to summer!
