It’s almost Christmas and we’re all in full-on holiday preparation mode. Preparing holiday-themed drinks for your gatherings with family and friends can be just one more added stress – and who needs that!?! This easy drink recipe for Apple Cranberry Sangria can make your holiday hosting so much easier!
Sangria is traditionally a summer drink because it’s so fruity and fresh, but when it’s made with darker, deeper fruit flavours with added holiday spice it’s perfect for Christmas, New Years or even Thanksgiving. The nice thing is, it can be an alcohol free sangria for the kids and other non-drinkers too! We love using cranberry juice, pomegranate juice, and fresh apple juice in this recipe for more of a winter flair!
