Ingredients
  

1 bottle (750ml) dry white wine (Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio)

2 cups unsweetened cranberry juice

1 cup sparkling water or club soda

1 cup diced fresh apple (preferably Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)

1 cup fresh cranberries (can substitute with frozen)

1/2 cup orange liqueur (like Triple Sec or Cointreau)

1 large orange, sliced

1 cinnamon stick

Fresh mint leaves for garnish

Ice cubes

Instructions
 

In a large pitcher, combine the dry white wine, unsweetened cranberry juice, and orange liqueur. Stir gently to mix the ingredients.

    Add the diced apples, fresh cranberries, and orange slices to the mixture. Drop in the cinnamon stick to add spice and flavor.

      Allow the sangria to chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 to 2 hours, allowing the flavors to meld together. For best results, let it sit overnight.

        Just before serving, add ice cubes to the pitcher or individual glasses. Pour in the sparkling water or club soda to add a refreshing fizz; stir gently to combine.

          Garnish each glass with fresh mint leaves for a delightful finish. Serve immediately and enjoy!
