Scary Sangria

Ingredients

  • 3-4 fresh figs, sliced (or 1 cup dried figs)
  • 1-2 fresh gala apples, sliced
  • 1 cup of cherries
  • 2-3 oranges, sliced (not peeled)
  • 1 lemon, sliced
  • 3 cups sparkling apple cider
  • 1 cup orange juice
  • ½ cup brandy
  • ½ cup dark spiced rum
  • 4 cinnamon sticks

Instructions

Slice apples and insert whole cloves directly into the fruit. Combine all fruit slices in a glass pitcher and slowly pour in brandy, rum, and wine.
