Notes
This recipe makes about eight (1-cup) servings of sangria, but the pineapple chunks in your glass/pitcher will obviously take up additional room. Therefore, the pitcher or drink dispenser in which you assemble this sangria should have at least a 3-quart (96-ounce) capacity.
For a party, feel free to double or triple this recipe in a large (at least 2-gallon) drink dispenser.
