Serving Size 8 People

Equipment

• You’ll need a few basic items to make this sangria. Start with a large pitcher that can hold at least 2 liters. A cutting board and a sharp knife are essential for chopping fruit. Measuring cups and spoons will help you get the quantities just right. Finally, a long-handled spoon is perfect for stirring everything together.

Ingredients

The ingredients for Sparkling Fall Sangria are simple and seasonal. Here’s what you’ll need:

• 1 bottle of red wine 750 ml, preferably light-bodied
• 1 cup of apple cider
• 1 cup of sparkling water
• ½ cup of brandy
• 1 apple sliced thinly
• 1 pear sliced thinly
• 1 orange sliced into rounds
• 1 cinnamon stick
• Ice cubes as needed

Each fruit adds its own unique flavor to the mix, while the cinnamon stick gives it that cozy fall spice.

Instructions

• Start by pouring the wine, apple cider, and brandy into the large pitcher. Stir them gently to combine.
• Next, add all the sliced fruits to the pitcher. Drop in the cinnamon stick.
• Stir again to mix the fruit flavors with the liquids. Let this mixture sit in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to let the flavors meld.
• Just before serving, add the sparkling water and ice cubes to the pitcher. Give it a final gentle stir. 🥂

Notes

For extra flavor, you can soak the fruit overnight in the wine mixture. This makes the flavors even more intense.

Feel free to customize the fruits. Adding pomegranate seeds, cranberries, or other fall fruits will make it your own.

This sangria can be made non-alcoholic by swapping the wine and brandy with grape juice and more apple cider.

Tasting Notes

The Sparkling Fall Sangria is a delightful blend of autumn flavors.

When I take a sip, the first thing I notice is the crisp apple and juicy pear flavors. 🍏🍐 These fruits give the drink a refreshing sweetness.

The cinnamon and nutmeg add a warm, spicy touch. 🍂 It reminds me of cozy fall days.

The sparkling wine creates a playful fizz. 🥂 It makes each sip feel light and festive.

Occasionally, I get a hint of orange zest. 🍊 It adds a slight tanginess to the mix.

The depth of cranberry juice balances everything out with a tart flavor. 🍇 It keeps the sangria from being too sweet.

I love how the flavors work together. Each sip feels like a little celebration of fall. 🎉

Tips & Tricks

When making Sparkling Fall Sangria, choose a fruity red wine like Merlot or Tempranillo. 🍷 These wines pair well with autumn fruits.

Don’t be afraid to mix different fruits. Apples, pears, and cranberries work great. The more variety, the better!

Quick Tips:

• Chill your sangria for at least 2 hours before serving. This helps the flavors blend.
• Add a splash of cinnamon syrup for extra fall flavor. 🍂
• Use sparkling water or club soda for a refreshing fizz.

Feel free to experiment with your favorite spices. A dash of nutmeg or cloves can add a lovely touch.

I like to serve it over ice with a cinnamon stick for garnish. 🎉 This makes it look festive and adds to the flavor.
