Up to 1 day before serving, put raspberry jam and water in a 4-cup saucepan and bring to a bare simmer over medium-high heat, stirring to dissolve completely.
-
Turn off heat and add chai and English breakfast tea bags, making sure they’re fully submerged. Let steep for 40 minutes, then discard tea bags. If not serving immediately, cover and refrigerate.
-
Up to 2 hours before serving, make the sangria. Place 4 orange wheels into an 8-cup pitcher along with tea mixture. Tap orange wheels about10 times with a muddler or long wooden spoon, just enough to bruise peel; don’t pulverize it.
-
Prepare grapefruit, orange, and lemon juices, and pour into pitcher mix, along with pomegranate juice and cayenne, and stir to mix. Add lemon wheels and the remaining 4 orange wheels, plus any additional fruit, and stir gently.
-
To serve, stir the mixture well, then add chilled club soda, and give it another gentle stir. Pour into ice-filled tumblers or wine glasses, offering additional club soda to anyone who prefers a spritzer sangria.
-
Serve and enjoy.
