This apple cider sangria recipe is my new favorite cocktail for fall entertaining! It's my family's favorite too-they liked it so much the first time I served it that I made it again for another family gathering the next weekend. It's been a staple at our fall get-togethers ever since. Sweetened with apple cider, packed with fresh apples, and warmly spiced with cinnamon and star anise, it's full of festive fall flavor.
I came across bottled sangria at the market and was inspired by its fruity, spiced notes-perfect for pairing with tender pork loin chops. The sangria adds a subtle depth of flavor that complements the savory richness of the meat. To round out this early fall dinner, orzo, a rice-shaped past, is simmered with broccoli florets, making a quick, colorful side dish.

"I pre-batch sangria all the time ... BUT I leave out the fruit until serving," Henderson says. "Citrus will turn the sangria super bitter, thanks to the pith. Berries, if using, will get mushy and gross. And orchard fruits will turn brown and mealy." The fridge will preserve the freshness of the fruit juices, so Henderson recommends "mix[ing] your wine and spirit and even the juice up to a day before, but add the fruit last minute."
