Why ease into the fall season? I say jump in head first with this apple infused drink!
Yield: 5 - 6 Cups
Ingredients
2 Honeycrisp Apples
One 750-milliliter Unoaked Bottle Chardonnay
1/2 cup Peach Schnapps
1/4 cup Orange Blossom Honey
2 Oranges - 1 Quartered
1 Lemon - Quartered
1 Lime - Quartered
2 Cinnamon Sticks
2 Quarter-size Slices of Fresh Ginger
3 Whole Cloves
2 Tablespoons Sugar
1/2 Teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
Ice
Club Soda
Directions
Peel, core and chop one of the apples. In a bowl, combine the Chardonnay, schnapps and honey. Add the quartered orange, lemon, lime, cinnamon sticks, chopped apple, ginger and cloves and refrigerate overnight. (If you don't want to wait that long at least give it 4 hours)
Strain the sangria into a pitcher. Peel, core and finely chop the remaining apple. Peel, section and chop the remaining orange. Mix the apple and orange in a bowl.
On a small plate, blend the sugar and cinnamon. Moisten the rims of wine glasses and dip in the cinnamon sugar to coat. Fill the glasses with ice. Pour in the sangria until three-quarters full. Top with a splash of club soda. Garnish with a spoonful of the chopped apple and orange.
Happy Fall!
