Method
In a large pitcher, combine the wine, brandy, triple sec, orange juice, and brown sugar to taste. Stir in the cinnamon stick, orange slices, and apple pieces.
Refrigerate until ready to serve, preferably 2-4 hours.
Stir and taste before serving. If too sweet or strong in flavor, add the ½ cup water. Alternatively serve the sangria over ice, which will help it achieve the perfect strength and sweetness.
