Ingredients
Scale
- 1 bottle of red wine (preferably a dry variety like Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot)
- 1 cup Fireball whiskey
- 1 cup pumpkin puree (unsweetened)
- ½ cup honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ½ teaspoon ground cloves
- 1 orange, sliced
- 1 apple, sliced
- 1 cup club soda or ginger ale (for optional fizz)
- Ice cubes
Instructions
- In a large pitcher, whisk together the pumpkin puree, honey or maple syrup, and the spices: cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Ensure the mixture is smooth and the flavors meld together nicely.
- Pour in the Fireball whiskey and the bottle of red wine. Gently stir until well combined. The Fireball adds a fiery warmth, balancing the sweet and spicy pumpkin notes.
- Add the orange slices and apple slices to the pitcher. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow flavors to develop fully. Add ice directly to each glass when ready to serve for extra chill.
- Just before serving, top each glass with a splash of club soda or ginger ale for a refreshing fizz. Serve in glasses filled with ice and garnish with additional fruit slices if desired.
Notes
- Chill the sangria in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to maximize flavor.
- For an extra festive touch, add cinnamon sticks, star anise, or pumpkin seeds as garnishes.
- Replace the red wine with white wine or rosé for a lighter version, or use grape juice or apple cider for a non-alcoholic option.
