Ingredients
1bottlewhite wine(I recommend sauvignon blanc, pinot grigio, or an unoaked chardonnay)
1cupvodka
¾cupcinnamon pear simple syrup(recipe below)
3pears,sliced (I recommend anjou pears)
4cinnamon sticks
2cupssoda water
Cinnamon Pear Simple Syrup
1cupchopped pear(from about 2 medium pears)
1cupgranulated sugar
1 ¼cupswater
1cinnamon stick
2tspvanilla extract
Instructions
Add white wine, vodka, cinnamon pear simple syrup, and cinnamon sticks to a large pitcher. Place in fridge for about 2 hours to let flavors meld together.
Right before serving, stir soda water into pitcher (see notes if you're planning to consume sangria over a couple days).
Pour sangria into ice-filled glasses with cinnamon sugar rims (see notes for instructions).
Cinnamon Pear Simple Syrup
Put chopped pear, sugar, water, cinnamon stick, and vanilla extract in a medium-size saucepan and bring mixture to a boil. Once boiling, lower heat and let simmer for about 15 minutes, until the mixture thickens.
Strain the mixture into a bowl, leaving behind the pears and cinnamon stick. Keep syrup in bowl or pour into a mason jar and place in fridge to cool completely before using.
Notes
If you want to keep sangria in your fridge to enjoy over a couple days, I recommend not adding the soda water to the pitcher and instead adding a splash of soda water to each glass of sangria immediately before serving.
For cinnamon sugar rim, brush a little of the simple syrup all around the rim of the glass and then place glass upside down on a small plate with cinnamon sugar mixture
