Cranberry Orange Sangria Cocktail
A festive sangria with tart cranberries, bright orange, and crisp white wine. Ready in 10 minutes and made to chill ahead for easy holiday entertaining.
EQUIPMENT NEEDED
- Pitcher
Ingredients
- 1 bottle of white wine I used a Pinot Grigio
- 2 cups cranberry juice cocktail
- ½ cup Deep Eddy's Cranberry Vodka
- 1 cup orange juice
- 1 cup frozen or fresh cranberries
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 orange, sliced
- 1 apple, sliced
Instructions
- Pour the white wine, cranberry vodka, cranberry juice, and honey into a large pitcher. Stir until the honey fully dissolves, it won't mix in on its own once the cold ingredients are combined, so give it a good 30 seconds of stirring.
- Add the fresh cranberries, orange slices, and apple slices. Stir gently to distribute the fruit through the pitcher.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 24 hours. The longer it sits, the more the fruit soaks up flavor and the more the flavors meld.
- Pour over ice into glasses, making sure each pour gets some of the fruit. Garnish with a fresh rosemary sprig, an orange slice, and a few extra cranberries.
Notes
- Use a dry white wine like Pinot Grigio, or red wine for a red sangria twist.
- No cranberry vodka on hand? Plain vodka works fine.
- Can be made up to 24 hours ahead, flavor improves the longer it chills.
- Pure cranberry juice gives a deeper red color; cocktail or light cranberry juice gives a lighter pink.
