Sparkling Red Wine Cocktails
Sparkling red wine cocktails are deliciously refreshing. The citrus pairs well with the slightly sweet Lambrusco.

- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 5 1/2 Cups Lambrusco (or other sparkling red wine)
- 24 Ounces sparkling orange beverage (such as Orangina)
- 4 to 8 Ounces whiskey (according to taste)
- 1 orange (cut into wedges)

Mix together ⅓ cup sugar and ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon and spread on a plate. In a large pitcher, combine 5 ½ Lambrusco or other sparkling red wine, 24 ounces sparkling orange beverage, and 4 to 8 ounces whiskey (depending on how strong you want the cocktails). Rub an orange wedge around the rims of eight wine glasses, then dip glasses in cinnamon-sugar mixture to coat. Pour cocktail mixture into glasses and garnish with orange slices. |
