Carmel Apple Sangria

I love fall. I love just about everything about it – college football, playoff baseball, Halloween, sweater weather and the kick-off to the holiday season. This drink is all things fall. Perfect for any get-together, Halloween party, sitting by the firepit or just because. It’s like a cup of apple cider with a little cozy kick.
