• 3 cinnamon sticks
• 1 cup unsweetened apple juice
• 1 cup fresh-squeezed orange juice

• 1 orange, unpeeled and cut into 4 wedges
• 1 banana, sliced
• sparkling water, to top off glasses
• ice cube

1. In a small saucepan, simmer together water, sugar and cinnamon sticks for 5 minutes; remove cinnamon sticks and let mixture cool.
2. Combine juices and wine; stir in fruits and cooked sugar mixture; chill for at least 4 or 5 hours.
3. For each serving, pour sangria over ice, top off with some sparkling water and add some of the fruit slices to each glass.
