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.
Apple Cider Sangria – Keto, Low Carb, Sugar-Free
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.
Apple Cider Sangria Ingredients:
boiling water
apple cinnamon tea bags – this is the secret low carb ingredient!
cinnamon sticks
dry white wine

cranberries, as a garnish
*** if you are counting carbs you don’t have to eat the apple but it does make this drink look festive with the red and green garnish

I am not familiar with wines, do you have a favorite that you can recommend for this?
Taryn says
I would ask in your local wine store. I just buy whatever is on sale that has their recommendation. I have used Charles Shaw from Trader Joe’s too (three buck chuck).
Christine says
How long will this last in the fridge?
Taryn says
Up to a week. Longer if you remove the fruit pieces.
