If it’s apple season it must be apple cider season too! The rich intense spiced apple flavor of cider transports me to crisp autumn evenings with visions of falling leaves, pumpkins and bushels and bushels of red, green and golden apples.
I’d say the timing is right to put a fall spin on your sangria with our apple sangria.
When the seasons start to change, let our cider sangria be your go-to cocktail.
We combine seasonal apples and apple cider with sweet white wine, brandy and sparkling soda for a festive fall cocktail.
That delectable spiced apple beverage, also known as sweet cider and soft cider, is the official state beverage of New Hampshire.
And as if apple cider isn’t delicious enough on it’s own, it transforms into amazing festive deliciousness when made into our easy apple sangria.
Applejack brandy, along with a hint of vanilla extract, add a depth of intense apple flavor making this the most amazing apple whiskey sangria you have ever tasted!
I’d even recommend this as your new Thanksgiving sangria to serve for the holiday too!

I love to top off my sangria pitcher with a bubbly soda just before serving because a sparkling apple cider sangria is the best! And be sure to serve your sangria in these trendy stemless wine glasses and you’ll be right in style! Cheers to a new season!
