This recipe can be adjusted so easily to suit your tastes. It makes me really happy that whenever I make it, people rave. My friend Mary Ann told me it’s the best Sangria she’s ever had. It is a great drink to serve at a Paella dinner instead of multiple bottles of wine which can be expensive. The secret is both the concentrated orange (or lime)  juice and the additional liquor.

• 1 Bottle Cheap Red Wine
• 1/4 can Concentrated Orange or Lime Juice (or combo)
• 1 Cup Cognac
• 1/2 Cup Triple Sec
• 2 Sliced Apples, Limes, Oranges
• 1 Cup of frozen, seedless grapes (a fun touch but optional).

Mix to combine in pitcher. When ready to serve pour over ice and top with seltzer water.
