This week I made my Sweet’N Low Caramel Apple Sangria Recipe as part of a sponsored post for Socialstars #SweetNLowStars…. Hope you love it as much as I did!
So…. I’m sure you’ve heard it a few times already, but… It’s fall, ya’all! :) Which is honestly my favorite time of year. Here in Central Washington, the leaves are changing, the weather is getting crisp, and it’s fabulous. So, I was inspired together a seasonal cocktail that fit the weather and the mood – but made it a little healthier by substituting out the sugar. Ready for it?
It’s my Caramel Apple Sangria. And ohmyheck is it good. Seriously. And, it’s super duper easy peasy.
To get started, you need some apples. Of course, since I’m here in Washington, the apple capitol of the world, I grow them myself. :) But if you’re somewhere else, grab any type of apple you prefer from the store. {And be sure to check the bag or label… You’ll often see that they are from Yakima, Washington, which is where I live!} Then get some wine. You can use a Moscato if you want it extra sweet, like a dessert drink. Or use any of your own favorite white wines, to make it a little more mellow.
I’m always a big Moscato lover. And I do love anything that’s caramel apple flavored. But, I’m also trying to cut down on the sugar in my diet. So, I took the regular caramel syrup recipe I usually follow and swapped out the sugar for Sweet’N Low. Makes it more waistline friendly for the holidays. <3
So gather up some fresh fall ingredients and get to work creating your own fun and festive drinks too! Here’s the recipe:

Instructions
- First, chill your wine and cider.
