Start by preparing the fruit juice cubes: Pour the orange juice, pineapple juice, and cranberry juice into separate ice cube trays. Add a few mixed berries to each compartment for added color and flavor before freezing. Freeze for at least 4 hours or until completely solid.
In a large punch bowl or drink dispenser, combine the red wine, brandy, and orange liqueur. Stir gently to mix.
Add the sliced oranges, lemons, and limes to the mixture. These will infuse the sangria with citrusy flavors.
Just before serving, add the sparkling water to the punch bowl for a fizzy touch.
Pop the fruit juice cubes out of the trays and add them to the sangria. They’ll keep the drink cold and add even more flavor as they melt.
Optional: Add additional ice cubes if you need extra chill or if the punch bowl will be out for an extended period of time.
Gently stir the sangria and ladle it into glasses, ensuring each glass gets a mix of fruit and flavorful juice cubes. Enjoy!
