Ingredients

  • ¼ cup water

  • 1 cup granny smith apple diced (1 large apple)
  • 1 cup fuji apple diced (1 large apple)
  • 1 cup orange diced (1 large orange)

Instructions

  • Combine the water, sugar, and cinnamon sticks in a small pot over high heat until the sugar has dissolved. Allow the syrup to cool.
  • Add the syrup, cabernet sauvignon, apple cider, whiskey, cranberries, pear, apple, and orange in a large pitcher.

  • Serve with some of the fruit from the pitcher and a stick of cinnamon for garnish.

Notes

Tips for the best sangria:
  • Choose a good quality wine. Use a red wine that you enjoy drinking. The wine is the base of your sangria, so its flavor significantly contributes to the overall flavor of the cocktail.
  • Be sure the sugar dissolves completely. As the water comes to a boil, stir the sugar and water together well. Otherwise, your fall sangria may end up with a grainy texture.
  • Allow the sugar syrup to cool completely. Place the syrup into the fridge for 20 minutes or so before you finish adding ingredients. Or, save time by making the simple syrup up to 4 days ahead of time!
  • Chill the mixture for at least 4 hours for the best flavor.
  • Garnish the cocktail glasses with some of the fruit from the pitcher and a stick of cinnamon
