Ingredients
- 2 cups no-pulp orange juice
- 3 to 6 ounces orange liqueur
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 2 clementines or blood oranges, cut into sections
- 1 Granny Smith or other tart apple, cut into 1/4-inch cubes
- 1 red Anjou pear, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch cubes

Directions
In a large pitcher or punch bowl, whisk the orange juice, orange liqueur and honey. Add the cinnamon stick, clementines, apple and pear and stir to combine. Set aside at room temperature for at least 1 hour.

I made this for a family party and everyone loved it! I used Rosa Regale as suggested. The cinnamon sticks add a nice flavor. I did not add the orange liqueur, but would like to try adding it next time. Very easy to make. I will make this again!

Really good and super easy. I made it for a Holiday Brunch and everyone enjoyed it. I omitted the Orange Liqueur as I didn't have any. Rosa Regale is an excellent sparkling wine.

This is a great holiday drink! I made it for Girl's Night at my place and it was a big hit. Since it calls for one cinnamon stick and didn't want to pay for a pack of several, I just added a few sprinkles of ground cinnamon instead. I added an extra green apple to the recipe since I always love the fruit in sangria. I also added closer to 6oz of the orange liqueur. Will be making this again soon!
