Yes, you can use any type of wine for sangria, but red wine and white wine are the most common choices. The beauty of this sangria is that you can easily see the three colors.
Yes! Doing so will allow the flavors to develop and the fruit to infuse the wine. Just make sure to keep it refrigerated until you’re ready to serve. Also, I would recommend making the apple stars just prior to serving so that the apple pieces do not turn brown.
