If you only associate sangria with summer, then you won’t be so sure after one sip of this autumnal spiced sangria. And if you love the flavour combination of cinnamon and apple (and are partial to a glass of white wine) - you are in for a treat!

This autumnal cocktail recipe strikes the perfect balance between being fruity and light, but still cozy enough for an autumnal chilly evening. It includes our favourite star of the show: gin - with seasonal fruits like apples and pears along with some sensational spice thanks to the fresh cinnamon sticks.
