Use a variety of fruits: Don't be afraid to mix and match different fruits to create a unique and flavorful sangria. Some popular combinations include strawberries, oranges, lemons, limes, apples, and peaches.
Add some herbs or spices: Herbs and spices can add a nice depth of flavor to your sangria. Some popular choices include mint, basil, rosemary, thyme, and cinnamon.
