Ingredients

2 - oranges
1 - apple
1 cup - fresh cranberries
1 cup - cranberry juice
¼ cup - brandy
¼ cup - granulated sugar
2 - cinnamon sticks
1 bottle - red wine

Instructions

Slice the apple and one of the oranges, then place in the bottom of a large pitcher and muddle well.
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.
Before serving, stir well and taste. Add more sugar if necessary and stir until the sugar has just about dissolved.
Serve with additional orange and apple slices, fresh cranberries and cinnamon sticks if desired. Enjoy!
