Ingredients

Red sangria

1
apple
½
orange
2 Tbsp (28g)
light brown sugar

granulated sugar

maple syrup
1
cinnamon stick
1 cup (240ml)
orange juice
2 cups (220g)
ice cubes, plus more as needed
2 cups (480ml)
alcohol-free red wine^†

red wine
1 cup (240ml)
carbonated water (optional)

Directions

Cut the apples and oranges into thin slices*.
Transfer to the serving jug and add the sugar.
Mull slightly with a wooden spatula or tamper.
Add the cinnamon stick.
Then add the orange juice and stir. Let sit at room temperature for at least 10 minutes, or in the fridge for 4 to 8 hours for a more fruity flavour**.
When ready to serve, add a generous amount of ice cubes and the wine.
Optionally, reduce the intensity of the drink and add some fizz by adding carbonated water.
To assemble, divide into glasses, garnish as desired, and enjoy!

Notes

^†Pinot Noir or other fruity, low-tannin red wines like Spanish Tempranillo or Garnacha work best, though any affordable wine will do.
*If desired, reserve a few pieces for garnish.
** This makes sangria a great make-ahead recipe!

Storage

The assembled red sangria is best enjoyed immediately.
The muddled fruit mixture can be stored in the fridge for up to 1 day. Add the ice, wine, and carbonated water (if using) when ready to serve.
