In Portugal, we usually add Port wine, “aguardente” and a sprig of mint.

Usually we don’t use cloves but consuming is a must.

You can do a Sangria in soo many ways. Another really cool recipe: Chop the fruits you like the most and add brown sugar, stir a little and let it rest couple minutes. Add vodka, orange liquer like triple sec and another strong boose like brandy. Let it rest again a bit. Add the Wine, let it rest again on fridge, with cinnamon sticks. To serve, add ice on the glass and fresh mint, top it with 7 up or sprite at the end or just drink it without it i personally like the bubbling thing on it, makes it fresher.
