So I'm throwing a little party today to celebrate spring, and I was planning to make sangria. I've never made it before, and there are about a billion recipes out there. Anyone have a favorite sangria recipe? TIA!

Thanks everyone! I found a really fantastic recipe on epicurious.com.
yield: Makes about 100 servings
Ingredients
Thoroughly chill all ingredients. Pour the wine, brandy and Cointreau into a large punch bowl. Stir orange and lemon juice with the sugar until sugar has dissolved. Then add to bowl and stir to blend. Add ice cubes and soda and garnish with fruit slices. Serve in 4-ounce punch glasses or wineglasses.
We scaled down the proportions, left out the lemon juice and sugar, swapped Sprite for club soda and added a LOT more fruit (lemons, oranges, apples, pineapple and pears). It was delicious!
