What Is Apple Sangria?

Traditional red sangria is made by combining red wine, fresh fruit, and brandy; apple sangria is a festive twist on the classic. Fresh apples, cinnamon sticks, apple cider, and cranberries infuse quintessential fall flavors into white sangria—perhaps combining a dry white wine, such as pinot grigio or Riesling, with a sparkling white wine, such as prosecco or Champagne. A combination of green apples and red apples helps balance out the sweetness of the drink. If you can’t find fresh cranberries, pomegranate seeds are a great substitute.
