In a large pitcher, combine the red wine, cranberry juice, pomegranate juice, Grand Marnier, and cinnamon simple syrup. Add the apple slices, orange slices, cranberries, and pomegranate arils.
Use a bar spoon to stir the ingredients until well mixed, allowing the fruit to start infusing the sangria.
Place the pitcher in the refrigerator and chill for 2–4 hours to let the flavors meld. For a quicker option, serve immediately over crushed ice.
Pour the sangria into glasses, including some fruit in each serving. Garnish with a cinnamon stick and a fresh rosemary sprig for an aromatic touch.
Notes
Pro Tips
Make Ahead: This sangria can be prepared a day in advance, allowing the flavors to deepen overnight.
Adjust the Sweetness: If you prefer a sweeter sangria, add a little more cinnamon simple syrup or a splash of orange juice.
Optional Bubbles: For a sparkling twist, top each glass with a splash of club soda or sparkling water right before serving.
