Equipment
- wine bottle
- funnel
- Juicer
- Knife
- Cutting Board
Ingredients
- ½ bottle white wine I used Sauvignon Blanc
- ½ large orange juiced
- ½ cup vodka
- ¼ cup triple sec
- ½ apple thinly sliced
- ¼ orange thinly sliced
- 1 can sparkling water I used Tangerine La Croix
Instructions
- First, dice the apple and thinly slice the orange. You'll need the pieces small enough to be able to fit through the neck of the wine bottle.
- Add the fruit, vodka, triple sec, and orange juice to the half empty wine bottle (If you prefer to make this in a large pitcher, add all the ingredients and mix).
- Add the cap to the wine bottle and shake. Note: if it’s a corked bottle, just ensure the cork is fastened tightly before shaking.
- Serve immediately or chill your sangria for 2-4 hours.
- Pour over ice and top each glass with 3-4oz of sparkling water. Garnish with a rosemary sprig and fruit. ENJOY!

Notes
Do not add the sparking water to the wine bottle. 1. It won’t fit as the recipe will fill up almost the whole wine bottle. 2. Never shake carbonation!
Leftovers can be stored right in the bottle for up to three days. Any longer and the fruit will be much too soggy.
