2 ripe white flesh peaches
1 nectarine
2 ripe plums, the juicier type
1/2 cantaloupe
6 tablespoons muscovado sugar
1 cinnamon stick

1
["Wash all the fruits and prepare them, putting them in a large bowl:
2
Cut the oranges and lemons in slices.
3
Remove stones from peaches and nectarine and cut in pieces, leaving the skin on..
4
Remove skin and seeds from melon and cut in pieces.
5
Cut the flesh from the plums.", "Add the muscovado sugar, the cinnamon, the pink peppercorns, the mint leaves and the white wine and leave to macerate 1/2 hour.", "Add the sparkling water, gin if using, ice cubes. Stir very well and transfer to serving jugs.", "Note: Please, please, please, don' use a bad wine - you will be drinking it! White wine has little body, so a poor white wine is not good at all. Also, don't use a sweet wine, it's the fruit that should be the star of the show, not the sugar content of the Sangria - if using a sweet wine you'll end up with a syrup rather than a summer drink. Think the difference between a freshly squeezed lemonade and a 7Up!", "NOTE 2 - VERY IMPORTANT - DO NOT USE WATERMELON - It is extremely indigestive combined with wine."]
