Scale
- 1 (750 mL) bottle of Pinot Noir or Tempranillo
- 1/2 cup brandy or Grand Marnier
- 2 cups apple cider
- 3 cinnamon sticks
- 3 apples, sliced or diced
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup, *if needed
- For the rim: 3 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 1 orange wedge
Instructions
- Mix. In a large pitcher, mix together the wine, brandy, apple cider and maple syrup (if using). Stir to combine.
- Add the cinnamon stick and apples. Give it another stir.
- Refrigerate until ready to serve, preferably 2 hours or more.
- Taste. Always taste before serving. If you find that it’s too sweet or strong for your liking, you can always add a little water or sparkling water (about 1/2 cup). Serve over ice and that will also help it find that perfect mix of strong, sweet, and delish!
