Bodega Sangria

Recipes:
• 80g caster sugar
• 1 litre red wine
• 400g strawberries
• 1 vanilla bean
• 30mL espresso
• Grated zest of 1 lemon
• Grated zest of 1 orange
• 1 litre cava

Preparation:

Combine caster sugar and 80mL water in a small saucepan and stir over medium heat until sugar is dissolved. Remove and cool. Combine sugar mixture with remaining ingredients except cava in a bowl, stir well, cover and refrigerate for 24 hours. Blend in a food processor or blender. This may need to be done in batches. Strain mixture through a sieve. Mix with cava and serve.

Makes 10-12 drinks.

• 8oz. brandy
• 1/8 oz. lemon juice
• 6 tbs. sugar
• 18 ice cubes
• 24 grapes
• 750 ml cold white wine

Preparacion:

Put in a punch bowl the brandy, the lemon juice and the sugar; shake the ingredients till the sugar is disolved. Add the ice cubes, the grapes and the wine; mix everything and serve in red wine glasses.

• 1 oz. pisco
• 1/2 oz. wine
• 1/2 oz chuchuhuasi
• 4 drops of angostura
• 6 ice cubes
• 5 oz. yellow soda
• 3 weels of lemon

Preparacion:

Shake the ingredients well with cracked ice, then strain into a chilled cocktail glass.

• 1 red Bordeaux
• 4 ounces Amontillado
• 2 ounces Maraschino
• Thin cut rind of 1 lemon(s)
• superfine sugar
• club soda

Preparation:

Mix in large bowl or just “let stand an hour or so for interjubilation of ingredients,” as our Lawton Mackall advised the prospective cup-brewer back in 1939. Then add as big a berg of ice as you can produce, pour in a liter of chilled club soda, and deck out with a few sprigs of fresh mint or, for true authenticity, borage — if you can find it (or even figure out what it is; we can’t). A curl of fresh cucumber rind would not go amiss, either. For a Claret Punch, shake 6 ounces red Bordeaux, a generous splash of sherry, a smaller splash of Grand Marnier, a teaspoonful of superfine sugar, and a slice each of orange and lemon well with cracked ice and pour unstrained into a tall glass; lance with straw and serve it forth.

• 4 ounces ruby port
• 2 thin lemon wheels
• 1 teaspoon superfine sugar
• nutmeg

Preparation:

Shake well with cracked ice, the pour unstrained into a tumbler or double Old-Fashioned glass and grate a little nutmeg on top.
