Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 large navel orange, (sliced)
  • 1 large apple, (chopped)
  • 1 large pear, (chopped)
  • the arils of 1 pomegranate
  • 2 cinnamon sticks
  • 2 vanilla beans
  • 1 1/2 bottles of red wine, (I bought a Spanish red wine)
  • 2 cups of sparkling pomegranate soda, (bought mine at Trader Joe’s)
  • 1/2 cup brandy
  • 1/2 cup sugar, (possibly more depending on your wine)
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Instruction

  • Add orange slices, apples, pears, cinnamon sticks and pomegranate arils to the bottom of a big pitcher. Pour wine, pomegranate juice/soda, brandy, sugar and vanilla extract over top. Scrape vanilla beans out of their pods and add to the mix. Then throw the entire empty vanilla beans in. Mix with a giant spoon to really combine everything.
  • Place in the fridge for about 1 hour before serving. Taste to determine if you’d like more sugar, and if so – add it! Spoon some of the fruit into glasses before pouring, then add ice and sangria on top.
  • Note: If you can’t find the pomegranate soda, I would sub 1 1/2 cups of pomegranate juice + 1/2 cup ginger ale or club soda. Taste before adding your sugar in case it is super sweet.
