Ingredients

Here’s what you need:

1 bottle of white wine like Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio
1 cup of apple cider
½ cup of pumpkin puree
¼ cup of brandy optional
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1 apple sliced
1 pear sliced
1 orange sliced
1 cinnamon stick
1 cup of sparkling water or club soda for fizz

The combination of these ingredients creates a perfect blend of autumn flavors. 🎃🍎

You can adjust the ingredients to your taste. If you prefer a stronger spice, add more pumpkin pie spice or another cinnamon stick. For a lighter sangria, skip the brandy.
