Can you freeze sangria? I know vodka does not freeze, what about brandy?

Alcohol freezes at -173 degrees Fahrenheit (-114 Celsius). That's way too cold to freeze in a freezer.
I think you could freeze sangria although I never have. With average home freezer temperature at zero degrees, you would likely end up with a slush rather than a solid...which should be OK. You couldn't drink a solid, anyway.
Sangria averages 13% alcohol, the rest being a combination of natural fruit juices. With the juices freezing and the alcohol not freezing is why I think you would get a slush. This might be better for whatever you had in mind.
When I plan to make piña coladas, I put the rum as well as the blender jar in the freezer overnight. The rum does not freeze but it is brought down to zero degrees. It doesn't melt the ice while being blended as it would if it was room temperature. Drinks don't become 'watered down' quickly and stay frozen longer.
One of my piña coladas is enough for any afternoon.
