Preparation

Step 1

It seems fitting to post a cocktail recipe the morning after election day, right?!  I mean, I don’t even know what the results are yet because I’m writing this while watching election coverage (but #imwithher!) but either way, we’re gonna need a drink.

While bourbon isn’t a typical sangria ingredient, I wanted this sangria to have a little punch to it.  Something to make you feel warm and fuzzy.  Bourbon does the trick.

That’s it!  Mix it all together, let the fruit soak up all that yummy flavor, and serve!

Whipping up a big batch of sangria is definitely easier than pouring individual cocktails.  In fact, sangria is best when prepped ahead of time because then the fruit gets to soak up all that goodness.

Combine wine, cider, bourbon, apples, cranberries and cinnamon sticks in a pitcher.

Let sit for at least 30 minutes prior to serving.

Immediately prior to serving, add La Croix and stir to combine.

Serve in wine glasses.
