Caramel Apple Cider Sangria

Okay folks, don’t hate the messenger but we’re rolling full steam into fall recipes. I know, it may seem early but according to the internet, you’d think it was sweater weather already. Truth be told, it’s 86 degrees here in Michigan with 89% humidity, so the last thing this lady is thinking about is a sweater, but a nice cold cocktail…sign me up. 

Let me introduce to you my new favorite fruity drink, Caramel Apple Cider Sangria. Friends, this is one easy-to-make beverage. It’ll serve you well all throughout the year but especially during the autumn and holiday months. 

Not only is this cocktail super easy to make, but it also makes a pitcher of drinks so you can easily serve for brunch or the holidays too. I love having a variety of go-to recipes that can be interchanged for whatever occasion.

Some tips for making this recipe:

• Place some toothpicks or cocktail skewers close by so your guests can nibble on the boozy fruit after finishing their cocktail.
