Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 bottle (750ml) dry red wine (like Merlot or Cabernet Sauvignon)
  • 1 cup apple cider
  • 1/4 cup brandy
  • 1/4 cup orange liqueur (like Triple Sec)
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 apple, thinly sliced
  • 1 pear, thinly sliced
  • 1 orange, thinly sliced
  • 2 cinnamon sticks
  • 1 star anise

Instructions

  1. In a large pitcher, combine the red wine, apple cider, brandy, orange liqueur, and maple syrup.
  2. Add the sliced apple, pear, and orange to the pitcher.
  3. Tuck in the cinnamon sticks and star anise.
  4. Stir gently to combine all ingredients.
  5. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
  6. Serve chilled over ice, garnishing each glass with fresh fruit slices.

Notes

  • For a white sangria, use a crisp white wine like Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc and omit the orange liqueur.
  • To make a nonalcoholic version, substitute white grape juice or more apple cider for the wine and omit the brandy and orange liqueur.
  • This sangria can be made up to 2 days in advance.
  • Adjust sweetness by adding more or less maple syrup to your preference.
