Instructions
Preparation Steps
Add the sliced apples and orange to a large pitcher.
Pour in the white wine and apple cider, then stir to combine.
Stir in the brandy, orange liqueur, and maple syrup until the sweetener dissolves.
Add the cinnamon sticks. Cover and refrigerate for at least 60 minutes to chill and infuse flavors (up to 24 hours).
Just before serving, gently stir in the chilled club soda and add ice to the pitcher.
Pour into glasses and garnish with extra fruit or a cinnamon stick if desired.
Notes
For a sweeter sangria, add more maple syrup to taste. Try swapping white wine for a dry hard cider or sparkling wine. For a nonalcoholic version, replace wine and brandy with additional cider and a splash of orange juice.
