I made this as a gift for my mom for Christmas. It was very good and perfect for the holiday. I had to use Navel oranges because the store didn't even know what satsuma was, and I added diced Bartlett pears into the mix. I used 1/3 less sugar apple juice instead of satsuma oj. I did make a second batch, and omitted the sugar-- it is VERY sweet on its own after it sits for a night. I used a sweet blushing wine for the first, and a medium body red for the second. Use the red if you don't want crazy sweet sangria. Overall, the cinnamon and cloves are yummy, and looked so festive in clear bottles I bought.12/31/09

Made this for a holiday gathering last night and it disappeared fast! I put it together the night before. I used tangerines since my grocery store didn't have satsumas. Following the previous tip, I used simple syrup instead of sugar, and I'm glad I did--I think it would have been difficult to get all the sugar to dissolve. This was tasty and delicious--will definitely make again!12/20/09
