I don’t know about you but as soon as fall hits I want everything apple and pumpkin!   The weather starts cooling down, school is back in session, and it just seems like it’s a good time to start using these warmer flavors.

I’ve been trying a collection of wine and tend to have a glass or two every weekend.  While I enjoy a glass of wine sometimes I want to jazz it up.  That’s why I like sangria so much.

I happen to have Organic Fuji apples from Melissa’s Produce and Torani Puremade Green Apple Syrup so I thought Apple Sangria with white wine would be fun to make.   I have another apple sangria on my blog but it uses red wine and just feels heavier.  When I went to look for the syrup I actually found I had a bottle of Torani Puremamde caramel syrup as well and decided to turn my drink into a Caramel Apple Sangria.

To make this beverage I started with a dry white wine because I don’t like my sangria overly sweet.   If you prefer a lighter and sweeter sangria use your favorite sweet white wine.

I mixed together the caramel and green apple syrup and then needed to decide on a liquor.   My first thought was vodka because it’s easy to use in drinks but I ended up going with bourbon because there is just something that works with bourbon and apples.   They pair nicely and the bourbon will really warm you up.

I finished by pouring in the white wine and apple pieces and letting it sit in the refrigerator for a few hours.  At minimum let it sit in the refrigerator 4 hours to get all the flavors blended together.

This sangria was delightful.  My husband said it tasted like fall in a cup and I have to agree.  Tart green apple, sweet caramel, warm bourbon, and white wine topped off with bubbly sparkling water made for the perfect fall sangria recipe. 

Pro Tips and Substitutions:

  • If you like more fruit in your sangria you can add several types of apples or throw orange slices in with the apples.
  • Pour the sparkling water in only when ready to serve so that it stays bubbly.  You can offer a variety of flavored sparkling water if you are having a party to add another dimension of flavor to the sangria and so it’s customizable.
  • To add a little spice throw in a few cinnamon sticks before putting the sangria in the refrigerator.

  1. I tried a caramel apple sangria once with caramel apple wine. It didn’t quite taste the way I wanted. This is going on the try it list because I still want to have caramel apple sangria this fall.
