Great recipe! I just happened to have a most of a bottle of Pisco and another of Sauvignon Blanc in the liquor cabinet, so it was perfect! We topped our glasses off with a little club soda before serving and it was still sweet enough plus had a little fizz to it. I agree with the other reviewers that there is a lot of fruit; I’ve experienced the same thing with other sangria recipes in the past. I will probably halve the fruit the next time I make it since it’s just me and my husband drinking but doubling the liquor and simple syrup if making it for a party would work well too.
Agree with everything said in the previous reviews. So much of the Pisco and wine gets absorbed into the apples and oranges that you will want to enjoy eating the fruit as well (and the lemons and limes if you enjoy the tart)! Very different and enjoyable! A nice change from the ordinary sangria.
Awesome summer drink! Fresh and light tasting. Extremely easy to make. This is one of the strongest white sangrias I have had. To quote a previous reviewer “not strong taste wise, but it sure does knock you for a loop!” I highly recommend this drink to anyone looking to serve a crowd. Excellent, Bobby! Thank you.
This is very delicious and extremely easy to make! BUT: very strong. Not taste-wise, but knocks-you-for-a-loop wise. I have 2 other sangria recipes that we make fairly regularly, and they are both that way, too, so I think it is typical for sangria. What can you expect from a bottle of wine and a cup and a half of brandy?? Very crisp, cool, and refreshing, not as heavy as a red sangria. I could not find pisco brandy, so we just used E & J (basic brandy.
OMG! My daughter found this recipe and we loved it. Made it myself this past Labor Day weekend.
Would suggest getting two bottles of wine as there’s plenty of fruit, simple syrup and pisco for a second round, although it has to ‘ferment’ for another day.
Turned the cashier at the store where I purchased the alcohol – he asked what I was doing with the pisco – told him the mixture and that it was a Bobby Flay recipe. He asked what I put it on, and I said, “The rocks!” He was duly impressed, and intended to go to the website for the recipe.
Thanks Bobby!

Delicious! Doubled the recipe like on the show but didn’t double the apples and oranges as there was already a lot of fruit in the pitcher. For single recipe, would consider using medium to smaller sized apples and oranges.
