Time 4h35m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
1 cup red seedless grapes
1 cup green seedless grapes
2 cups Concord grape juice
1/4 cup brandy
1 bottle cold pinot grigio
4 sprigs fresh mint
1 lemon, sliced
1 lime, sliced
1 orange, halved and sliced

Steps:

  • Combine 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup water in a small pot and bring to a boil over medium heat. Boil 1 minute, swirling the pot occasionally, to make sure the sugar is dissolved, then transfer the syrup to a heat-proof container. Cool. The simple syrup will keep for a few weeks sealed in the refrigerator.
  • Put the grapes and 2 tablespoons sugar in the bottom of a large serving pitcher and muddle to crush them. Stir in the grape juice and brandy, and then the pinot grigio. Taste, and add the simple syrup to sweeten, as desired.
  • Stir in the mint and lemon, lime and orange slices. Chill for at least 4 hours. Serve over ice in large wine glasses.
