So sweet, Â savory and tart… you’re going to absolutely love this easy and delicious Champagne Sangria!
Happy New Year fellow sangria lovers! Â I’ll be ready to get my new year started with this sangria. Â I’ve never had anything quite like it before… the flavor combinations are incredible. Â The secret is the rosemary simple syrup. Â It’s so easy to make and smells so good.
I probably went a little overboard with the photographs because I was so excited about how amazing this tastes.
Apples, cranberries and some clove-studded orange slices take this over the top! Â It’s a perfect sangria to serve this new years that’s guaranteed to be a crowd-pleaser.
I found that using a skewer makes studding orange slices much easier. Â Just poke the skewer in the slice, remove, and the cloves go right in afterwards.
No doubt… you’re going to impress your guests with this sangria.
Enjoy!
