The choice of fresh fruit depends entirely on what's available, so don't be afraid to experiment. Mangoes, pineapples, apples, and strawberries are some fruits to consider, although the drink should include at least one citrus fruit, just for some zing.
Serve this sangria at picnics or at alfresco luncheons. It pairs well with savory Spanish foods such as paella.
