Can I make it in advance?

Absolutely! Prepare it a few hours ahead and let it chill in the refrigerator. The flavors meld beautifully over time.

What if I want to add alcohol?

For an adult version, swap the sparkling grape juice with a sweet red wine. If you prefer a drier taste, feel free to adjust the sweetness with a bit of sugar or honey.

Is it suitable for kids?

Yes, the non-alcoholic version is kid-friendly. Just ensure to stick with the sparkling grape juice.

How can I enhance the presentation?

Use star cutters for the apples to add a whimsical touch. Garnish with extra cinnamon sticks and orange slices for a vibrant look.

Can I use frozen fruits?

Definitely! Frozen cranberries work just as well, and they help keep the sangria cold.
