    spiced cranberry orange sangria

    spiced cranberry orange sangria | The Baking Fairy

    It's already December! You guys, I seriously can't even. I have like two weeks left of school, and then one single semester left until I graduate college. WHAT IS LIFE. I'm not ready. I know it's quite a few months away, but I'd rather not think about it because then that means I'm an actual adult who has a college degree and can get an actual job! Though, in reality, I'm just going to PA school so really, more school for me. Never stop learning and all that. Now, onto less depressing and life-changing thoughts, I made you sangria! I'm not a huge wine drinker, mostly because I'm a huge wimp when it comes to the strong taste, but I adore sangria! If you add fruit to wine, it automatically tastes a million times better. I might not consider myself adult enough to graduate college, but I am definitely adult enough to make myself some sangria. Yes I am.

    In typical college student fashion, my go-to sangria recipe is just cheap red wine and sliced oranges, BUT since the holidays are quickly approaching, I figured I should fancy it up a little! All I did was add in some fresh cranberries and cinnamon sticks for a cozy, wintery twist, and the result is fabulous! The cranberries don't do much {and to be honest, I mostly added them for their pretty factor}, but you can definitely taste the kick of cinnamon. I like my wine chilled, but I have to say this recipe is definitely reminiscent of mulled wine. Which, I mean, I've never had, but I know it's warm spiced red wine so close enough, yeah? This "recipe" takes 4 ingredients and 5 minutes to throw together, but it will impress the pants off of your friends! Who doesn't love a big pitcher of homemade Christmas sangria, after all?
