Try this apple cider sangria! It pairs the cozy flavors of fall with dry red wine to make a Spanish-style autumnal spin on this drink. Add a hint of apple cider, and it’s a flavor-packed drink that is the best for fall parties! Sangría is a wine punch that originates from Spain. The classic version is made with red wine and chopped fruit, and often orange juice or brandy. In Spain white sangria is also popular, and there are a myriad of other not-so-traditional spins like rosé sangria, watermelon sangria, etc. This apple cider sangria is a creative variation, but it’s solidly inspired by the Spanish way to make it. Here are the ingredients in this apple cider sangria:
Fruit: apple, pear, orange Sugar Cinnamon Dry red wine Apple cider or sparkling apple cider
Rioja Tempranillo Garnacha (Grenache grown in Spain) Malbec Pinot Noir
Macerate fruit for 1 hour: Mix the sangria fruit with sugar and cinnamon, and let it stand at room temperature and break down. This helps the fruit flavors permeate the wine even more. Add liquids: Add the red wine. Serve with apple cider: When serving, pour half the glass with apple cider and half with the red wine mixture.
Pour half of the glass cider, then half red wine (or mix in a pitcher!). This makes for a beautiful two-toned drink. If you’re serving for a crowd, you can simply combine the cider with the red wine in a large pitcher. Sparkling apple cider adds lightness and bubbles. It’s traditional in Spain to serve sangria with soda water: sparkling apple cider mimics the fizziness.
Classic: Red Sangria and White Sangria Crisp and refreshing, here are the traditional Spanish ways to make these classic flavors. Summer: Rose Sangria, Strawberry Sangria, Watermelon Sangria and Easy Peach Sangria are light and fruity: perfect for summer! Frozen: It’s like the smoothie form of this boozy drink!
