How to Make Olive Garden Sangria

  1. Make the simple syrup: In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of water and 1 cup of granulated sugar.
  2. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves completely. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Remove from heat and let the simple syrup cool completely to room temperature.
  4. In a large pitcher, combine the red wine, sweet vermouth, grenadine, and cranberry juice.
  5. Add the cooled simple syrup to the pitcher and stir gently to combine.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. (Optional: Refrigerate overnight for best results)
  7. Just before serving, add 7-Up to taste. Start with a small amount and add more to your liking.
  8. Pour into glasses filled with ice. Garnish each glass with an orange slice.
