Spiced Cinnamon Apple Sangria
In honor of Fall and apple season swooping in this week, I thought it was only necessary to have a "Wine a bit Wednesday" that fits. I know I do Sangria all the time, but honestly who can get enough Sangria? Picture this...you and your love sitting on your back porch cuddled under a blanket, watching the leaves fall, sharing a over-sized glass of Spiced Cinnamon Apple Sangria. OK, no good? How about you and your dog plop down on the comfy couch to watch the new Fall shows with a glass of Spiced Cinnamon Apple Sangria?! Great! It is easy enough to make and it is amazingly apple-luscious. Chill it and enjoy....OR heat it up for a warm treat! Yup...I said heat it up!!
What you need:
2 bottles of Riesling-any type will do. I usually use a semi-dry so it is not a sugar over-kill
1 quart of Apple Cider
A couple of apples-sliced or diced
1 orange-sliced
A few Cinnamon Sticks
1 & 3/4 cups Spiced Rum
(brown sugar can be added to taste)
Now for the very hard, intricate instructions:
dump into a pitcher and chill for an hour.
Do enjoy and Happy Fall!
