Most sangrias are made with red wine so this recipe is a little unusual in that it uses white wine instead. Also, most sangria recipes are quick and easy. This one does involve a bit of cooking - so plan ahead!

Ingredients
1 cup water
1/2 cup sugar
6 short cinnamon sticks

1 bottle white wine - Spanish/French is best,
dry in any case (i.e. not an oaky Chardonnay!)
1 cup sparkling water
1 cup apple juice
1/2 cup orange juice
2 oranges, in wedges
10 cherries
2 apples, in chunks

This recipe requires a bit of preparation! Heat the water, sugar, and cinammon sticks until they're simmering for 5 minutes, then cool back down to room temperature. Pull out the sticks, and mix in all remaining ingredients. Chill overnight. Pour over ice the next day, and enjoy!

Note: I created these sangria recipes and have had them online for years. If you find similar sangria recipes elsewhere, it's because someone copied my idea. I do appreciate it when visitors write in to warn me about the plagiarism - but usually there's not much I can do about it! What's really funny is when they copy my design right down to my sangria pitcher. That's a bit much :)
