Apple Cider Sangria

This Apple Cider Sangria is the perfect winter beverage. It tastes like an adult version of apple cider but it is sugar-free, low carb, keto, and Trim Healthy Mama friendly.

I love fruity, girly drinks. But most of those are full of carbs and sugar. Making sangria is my favorite way to have a special cocktail that is still good for me.

Dry white wine is allowed with any fuel type meal on the Trim Healthy Mama plan. If you eat those beautiful green apples floating in it this would be an E beverage. The cranberries are just a garnish. Unless you like raw, unsweetened cranberries. If you do then go ahead and eat those too. They are way too tart for me.

Notes

*** if you are counting carbs or having this with an S meal you don't have to eat the apple but it does make this drink look festive with the red and green garnish

Notes on Sweeteners: 

I use my own blend of xylitol, erythritol, and stevia in my recipes. This is twice as sweet as sugar. It is comparable to Trim Healthy Mama Gentle Sweet and Truvia.

To sub in Swerve or Lakanto Monk Fruit use 1.5 times the amount of sweetener called for. 

 

To sub in Pyure or Trim Healthy Mama Super Sweet use half the amount of sweetener called for.

 

Substitutions will work in most recipes. They may not work in candies, such as caramel.
