  • Right before serving, add the sparkling grape juice. If you'd like to make this an adult-only drink, you can substitute the sparkling grape juice for a white sparkling wine of your choice.

  • Lastly, garnish with apple slices, lemon slices, oranges slices, and/or dried cranberries. I personally love the look of the apple slices and lemon slices together and then topped with dried cranberries.
