APPLES AND HOLLY
The perfect red wine cocktail for those harsh winter months
I've never really experimented with red wine cocktails before, but felt like this winter was the perfect opportunity. The apple brandy compliments the stoned fruit of the wine while the chai maple syrup adds just a bit of sweetness and a good spice contrast. The seltzer helps the flavors mingle together for an effervescent holiday treat.
