Christine's Sangria

It called for Brandy but I used Cream Sherry. Cut up fruit, oranges, lemons, limes, strawberries, I used 2 oranges, one lemon, lime and then a couple cups of Strawberries. Soak the fruit in the Cream Sherry(Brandy). Meanwhile add together 1 bottle red wine, ½ bottle sprite (from 2 liter) and 1 cup of oj. Let fruit soak for about an hour and then add everything together. You can play w/sprite, oj, wine combo to your taste.
