Ingredients

For the Cranberry Reduction

2 Cups Cranberries

3 Tbsp. Granulated Sugar

½ Cup Water

For the Sangria

Cup Blood Orange Juice 

3 Blood Oranges - To Slice

2 Cups Cranberries 

3 Cinnamon Sticks

Fresh Rosemary

1 Bottle White Wine

2 Cups Ginger Beer 

3 Shots Brandy

Directions

1: Make your Reduction

Add cranberries, sugar, and water to a small sauce pot, and bring the mixture to a boil. 

Reduce to a simmer and cook for about five minutes, or until the cranberries begin to pop open and soften. Using a spoon, smash the cranberries, give the mixture a stir, and set it aside to cool.

2: Juice Oranges 

As the reduction cools, juice 2-3 blood oranges and slice three more.  

3: Fill Up Your Pitcher

Spoon the cranberry reduction into the bottom of a large pitcher. Next, add the orange slices, cranberries, cinnamon sticks, and rosemary. Finally, pour the blood orange juice, wine, ginger beer, and brandy on top.

Stir to combine.

4: Refrigerate 

Store in the fridge until you’re ready to serve. For best results, your sangria should sit in the fridge for at least 2 hours to soak up the flavors.

Notes

1. Add a Splash of Flavor

Add a splash of orange liqueur for extra citrusy depth.

2. Ice Cold

Add ice cubes to the glasses when serving to keep the sangria perfectly chilled.

3. Variations

Experiment with different fruits like pomegranate seeds or apple slices for a unique twist.
