Apple Cider Sangria

Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh apple cider
  • 1 bottle dry white wine
  • 1/4 cup calvados or another apple brandy
  • 1/4 cup Triple sec or another orange liqueur

 

  • Mixed colors of apples, diced and tossed with lemon juice to prevent browning
  • Seltzer, sparkling water or sparkling apple cider to finish

Instructions

  1. Place the apple cider in a small saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat.
  2. Reduce about 3/4 of the way, until you have approximately 1/4 cup apple cider left; this will take 10 to 15 minutes.
  3. Pour into small bowl set over a bowl of ice water and stir; it will cool very quickly this way. Pour reduced, cooled cider into pitcher.
  4. Add wine, apple brandy and triple sec.
  5. Add fruit and let sit in the fridge until needed.
  6. Add some fizz right before serving.
  7. Garnish with fruit from the pitcher.
