Equipment
- 1 63 oz. Pitcher *this is the one I used!
Ingredients
- 4 cups white wine, Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc
- 2 cups apple cider *see note below
- ¼-½ cup brandy
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- 2 apples, red and green
- 1 orange
- 4-5 cinnamon sticks
- 3-4 star anise or whole cloves
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a large 63. oz pitcher.
- Slice apples and oranges and toss them in along with the cinnamon sticks, anise and cloves.
- Mix well and store in the fridge for at least one hour. Overnight is best to allow the flavors to get to know eachother!
Notes
*There is a difference between good apple cider and average apple cider. I've found that the best apple ciders are the ones that are not brand name and in glass bottles.
- Feel free to add more or less maple syrup for a sweeter sangria.
- Using a sweeter wine will make your sangria sweeter. I used a dry sauvignon blanc for this recipe.
