Ingredients:
1 bottle white wine
1 bottle sparkling apple cider
1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
1 apple, chopped
(We doubled this recipe to fill up the drink dispenser, but the portions listed should be perfect for a regular sized pitcher!)
Directions:
1. Add chopped apples and cranberries to the bottom of a drink dispenser or pitcher.
2. Pour white wine over top of the fruit. Let chill in the refrigerator anywhere from an hour to overnight.
3. Just before serving, add the sparkling apple cider and stir.

Add a little ice to make it extra chilly! And, of course, sangria isn’t complete without a pretty paper straw.
We hope you enjoy our Holiday Sangria for Thanksgiving, Christmas, or both!
Wishing everyone a safe and happy Thanksgiving 🙂
P.S. Check back tomorrow for a Black Friday deal!

We will use just about any excuse to munch on a couple (boxes of) Peeps this time of year. Turning them into drink stirrers is our best excuse yet!
All you need are some bunny Peeps and cake pop sticks and you are good to go. You can get Peeps at the dollar store and cake pop sticks from your local craft store.
Add these drink stirrers to your favorite fruity cocktail, a glass of lemonade, or a cup of milk!
What are your favorite ways to use Peeps? We also dipped ours in chocolate…
