Don't worry about using the exact fruit in the recipe: have fun and choose whatever looks good at the store or is growing on your trees! This gets more and more potent as time goes on; after three days one slice of apple will give you the giggles.

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 (750 ml) bottles red wine (mixed varieties is good, for instance one malbec and one tempranillo...$5.99 a bottle is fine!)
1 cup brandy (real 80 proof brandy aged in oak, not one of the weak flavored imitations)
1/2 cup Cointreau liqueur or 1/2 cup triple sec
1 cup orange juice
1 cup pomegranate juice
1/2 cup sugar
1 orange
1 apple
1 pear
6 ounces blackberries
2 ounces pomegranate seeds
2 cinnamon sticks

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan, heat 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup water on medium high until sugar dissolves; remove from heat.
  • In the meantime, slice the orange, apple and pear.
  • Mix all ingredients together and let stand in a tightly-sealed container or pitcher for at least 24 hours in the refrigerator before serving.
