Apple Cider Bourbon Sangria

Apple Cider Bourbon Sangria is a simple holiday sangria with a splash of bourbon for an extra punch!

Apple Cider Bourbon Sangria - Pouring Bourbon into a Jug of Sangria It seems fitting to post a cocktail recipe the morning after election day, right?!  I mean, I don't even know what the results are yet because I'm writing this while watching election coverage (but #imwithher!) but either way, we're gonna need a drink.

A drink to celebrate.  A drink to drown our sorrows.  Because after this past year, we could all use a big. fat. drink.

Apple Cider Bourbon Sangria - a Jug Full of SangriaThis Apple Cider BOURBON Sangria will absolutely do the trick either way.

While bourbon isn't a typical sangria ingredient, I wanted this sangria to have a little punch to it.  Something to make you feel warm and fuzzy.  Bourbon does the trick.

But if you're not exactly a bourbon fan, brandy is a great substitute.

Apple Cider Bourbon Sangria - Fantastic Drink for Every Holiday

Whipping up a big batch of sangria is definitely easier than pouring individual cocktails.  In fact, sangria is best when prepped ahead of time because then the fruit gets to soak up all that goodness.
