Apple Sangria

I L-O-V-E sangria but have never tried apple before.  This is definitely worth a try.  I'll report back, I promise.

3 1/2 C. chopped Honeycrisp apples (about 2 pounds)
1/2 C. apple schnapps
1/4 C. honey
4 cloves
2 cinnamon sticks
2 slices peeled fresh ginger
1 large navel orange, quartered
1 750ml bottle fruity red wine
1/4 C. club soda, chilled, divided

Combine the first 8 ingredients in a large bowl; stir well.  Refrigerate 4 hours or until thoroughly chilled.

Strain wine mixture through a sieve into a bowl, discard solids.  Pour about 2/3 C sangria over ice in each of 4 glasses; top each serving with 1 tbsp. club soda and 1 apple slice.
