Ingredients

Instructions

0 of 4 done
  1. Step 1

    Slice the apple and one of the oranges, then place in the bottom of a large pitcher and muddle well.

  2. Step 2

    Juice the remaining orange, which will yield about 1/2 cup of juice, and add to the pitcher along with the fresh cranberries, cointreau or brandy, granulated sugar, cinnamon sticks and wine. Stir well and cover with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for a minimum of 4 hours or overnight. The longer the flavors meld together, the better the sangria will taste.

  3. Step 3

    Before serving, stir well and taste. Add more sugar if necessary and stir until the sugar has just about dissolved.

  4. Step 4

    Serve with additional orange and apple slices, fresh cranberries and cinnamon sticks if desired. Enjoy!

So fun and easy to make! Made it for a family gathering and everyone loved it! Had extra apple and orange slices to put in the glasses and made it so festive. Will definitely be making again!
