  • Cook Time:  0 min

Ingredients

  • 1 (750 mL) bottle red wine, such as Garnacha or Pinot Noir
  • 1/2 cup brandy
  • 1/2 cup triple sec
  • 3/4 cup fresh squeezed orange juice, about 2 large oranges
  • 2-4 Tbsp brown sugar, optional, depending on sweetness
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 1 Orange cut into slices
  • 1/2 green apple, cored cut into bite size pieces

Method

  1. In a large pitcher, mix together the wine, brandy, triple sec, orange juice and sugar (if using), stir to combine. Add the cinnamon stick, orange slices and apple. Give it another stir.
  2. Refrigerate until ready to serve, preferably 2 hours or more.

**Taste before serving. If it’s too sweet or strong for your taste, you can add a little water (about 1/2 cup) or sparkling water (about 1/2 cup). Serving over ice will also help it achieve the perfect strength and sweetness.
