Apple Pie Sangria tastes just like apple pie…in a glass! THE perfect drink for fall!

Apple Pie Sangria tastes just like apple pie...in a glass! THE perfect drink for fall!

I feel like parenting is a constant balancing act – between believing everything your kids tell you and doubting them at every turn. And….if you’re anything like me….you find the believing a lot more difficult than the doubting. (Does that make me horrible?!)

Apple Pie Sangria tastes just like apple pie...in a glass! THE perfect drink for fall!

Case in point: Ellia went to a sleepover last weekend, and her friend’s parents took them roller skating. She ended up falling on the skating rink, hurting her wrist, calling home crying, and proceeding to complain about it for the rest of the weekend. And….well….let’s just say I clearly didn’t rush her to urgent care. Nor did I believe it was really as bad as she was making it out to be.

To the point where I sent her to school Monday morning and honestly thought nothing of it. Until my phone rang about 2 hours into the day….and long story short, after a couple different appointments and x-rays, we left the hospital 6 hours later with her arm in a cast. For the second time in her life. I guess when she said it hurt, it really did! I guess I could do a little more believing.

Unfortunately, it’s her writing hand, which means writing…and piano…and cello…are all going to be difficult. Fortunately, she has a really good attitude about it. In fact, I think she’s actually excited. Because a cast means attention, and when you’re a 10 year old girl, attention is a good thing. Of course, Greta knows that, too…..and is struggling with some jealousy….

Fortunately for me, I’ve recently fallen in love with this Apple Pie Sangria. In fact, I have a pitcher of it sitting in the fridge right now. Which somehow makes everything that much better. Because, if you’re anything like me, a glass of sangria is my happy place. Especially when it tastes just like apple pie! I’ve been dreaming up this sangria for a while now….and I must say….I got the recipe *just right*.

This Apple Pie Sangria has all the flavors of your favorite fall treat – from the apples to the cinnamon to the ice cream on top. So you can finally really drink your dessert. Find yourself doubting? Don’t! If ever there was a time to believe, that time is NOW! Apple Pie Sangria is the BEST sangria for fall! My new favorite….and sure to be yours, too!

      Thanks, Holly! I plan to make it ALL the time this fall. And I’m happy to report that Ellia is doing just fine. She even went rock climbing the other day….without us knowing, of course! KIDS!

    I am SO making this; for my friend who is suffering through a bad break-up of her long time boyfriend! Also, don’t feel bad about not taking your daughters’ complaints seriously. We’ve ALL done this however, only us brave ones admit it! When I was younger I broke my wrist BADLY and ran into our kitchen screaming my arm hurt (let me add the wrist bone was sticking through the skin!) and my mom told me to go soak it in the bathroom sink and I would be fine. My dad heard me crying and checked on me and FLIPPED because he could clearly SEE my wrist bone!! So you see, you are NOT a terrible mother…

    Your poor girl – sounds like a painful fall! Poor Greta too 😉 I definitely think that you deserve a nightly serving of this delicious beverage. I’m sure that was stressful and exhausting! This recipe btw – looks delicious!

      Thanks, Jess! The sangria is really good! And good news – the jealousy has worn off (for now) and we’ve resumed life as usual. Or close to it. 🙂

    I can´t find whipped cream flavored vodka where I live. What can I use to replace it?

      Shoot! Maybe some cream soda? Or can you find cake flavored vodka?
