The classic—and sessionable—red wine punch from Bodega on Main

• 1 lemon
• 1 orange
• 1/2 apple
• Handful blackberries
• 1 bottle (750 mL) Spanish red wine
• 1.5 oz Triple Sec or Grand Marnier
• 1.5 oz brandy
• 2 oz lemonade
• 2 oz orange juice
• 6 to 8 oz soda water or 7Up

Peel orange and lemon carefully. Set aside the peels to use as garnish. Slice apple, orange and lemon, but keep the blackberries whole, and place the fruit in a pitcher.

Mix wine, spirits, juice and soda together, then pour over fruit. Stir gently. Add ice cubes. Garnish with orange and lemon peels, allowing them to hang from the pitcher. Makes 6 servings.
