This Caramel Apple Sangria is only FOUR ingredients and it is delicious! It tastes just like a caramel apple! Such an easy white wine sangria recipe!

In a glass, the Caramel Apple Sangria has a dash of green color with sliced green apples.

The other day someone said something to me and it has me totally thinking about my parenting. Like I’m watching my own parenting now with a microscope.

It’s annoying.

It’s made me question if I’m patient enough with my kiddos. If I am too strict. You know, fun stuff.

I was talking about it with a friend the other day and she said, “Lisa. You are a good mom. It’s the end of summer vacation. You CANNOT judge your parenting based on right now. Give it a solid two weeks before you even think about it again.”

A woman is pouring the Caramel Apple Sangria into a glass cup that has sliced apples inside.

So smart. It’s important to keep smart friends around. The good news is that I’ve been a lot more patient with my kids, which I think they kind of needed as they struggle with the end of summer and mixed feelings about going back to school. The bad news is that patience is hard guys, lol. And usually it means by the end of the day I need a nice glass of  . . . you know, anything.

TURNING CARAMEL APPLES INTO SANGRIA

Enter my new best friend, Caramel Apple Sangria. Because you know that I don’t just do caramel apples as a caramel apple. I do Caramel Apple Poke Cake. I do Caramel Apple Cobbler. I do Caramel Apple Milkshake. And now this! You guys, it’s so good. I “tested” the various ratio options when it comes to the liquor you put in this, deciding just how much caramel vodka and just how much apple liquor was needed to make the most caramely appley taste and we have a winner, friends!

FOUR INGREDIENT CARAMEL APPLE SANGRIA

And did I mention that this is only four ingredients? Awesome, right? So if you lose your patience with your kids, you are only four ingredients away from Caramel Apple Sangria. A few sips and then reset.

And you know what? Losing your patience with your kids is just a good lesson in teaching them humility. You just apologize and they get a good life lesson. And you get sangria. Win – win.

Notes

If you decide to double this recipe, and I really think that you should, you don’t need to double the number of apples in it. It will still be delicious with two.
I used Apple Pucker, but there are lots of great apple liquors on the market and any will do!

  10. Karen Pompea says

    I’ve called several liquor stores and no one has a white apple liquor. Did you use apple jack? The apple pucker is green is it not?

    • Lisa Longley says

      Hi Karen! I actually didn’t use a clear apple liquor, but with the wine and the vodka, the over all drink doesn’t look green. Apple Pucker would work just fine.
