Directions

Add the sliced orange, diced apple, mixed berries, cinnamon stick, and whole cloves to the wine mixture.

Stir gently to ensure all the fruit is submerged in the liquid, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.
- 4
Cover the pitcher and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the fruit to macerate and the spices to infuse deeply.

Just before serving, remove the cinnamon stick and cloves from the sangria.

Pour the cold sangria into individual glasses filled with ice, making sure each glass gets a generous portion of the fruit.

Top each serving with a splash of chilled sparkling water or club soda for effervescence, adding a delightful lightness to the drink.
