Super Sangria

To make enough for a 5-gallon jug of summer fun!

FIXINS:
2 bottles of red wine (don't skimp here...and I get the big ones...any kind will do)
Lemons, Oranges, Limes cut into wedges. You can even throw Grapefruit in.
Sugar (4 TBSP)
Orange Juice (cup or so)
Gin ( 4 - 6 shots depending on how strong you want it...don't skimp here, either! Sapphire is the best)
Sliced strawberries and/or raspberries (frozen is ok...even better actually)
2 small cans of pineapples (with juice)
2 liters ginger ale

PREP:
In a large pitcher, pour wine, juice squeezed from fruit wedges (strain to get seeds out),sugar, pineapple, OJ, gin. Toss in the fruit wedges as well. Chill in fridge overnight(at least 24 hours). Just before serving, add ginger ale, berries and ice. Provide the cups, ice, designated driver and let the fun begin!
