Apple Sangria
The absolute must-have sangria for Fall, Thanksgiving, and Christmas, combining apples, cranberries, wine and apple cider. A winning combo!
We all know that Southern California does not really have a winter season. Except for maybe this winter.
It’s been so cold that I actually had to buy leg warmers.
Yes, leg warmers!
Never did I think that I would have to invest in one of these.
But now I wear them all day, even at home.
They’re just so comfy, all the while I sip on these.
It’s the absolute perfect sangria for this time of year, although you could really have it all year long.
But for now, I just need my leg warmers and a glass of this.
No wait. Maybe 2 glasses.
It’s Wednesday.

Absolutely beautiful and festive!! Love this apple sangria!!
Hello…I have made many of your recipes & look forward to them each morning. I thought I could celebrate my birthday today with your Sangria! But I don’t understand when or how you “Serve over ice with sparkling white wine”. Do you like to add the sparkling wine to the pitcher or do you pour a little over the ice in the cup & then add the sangria mixture?
Thanks so much for your terrific ideas!
You can do either option – it’s up to you!
Ice, then sparkling to half the container, then top with the sangria. This is a better recipe than my usual, but my take is to start with cold sparkling wine. One stir should work well to mix.
I love this beautiful, colorful Sangria. This is definitely a “keeper” recipe for years to come. Thanks.
