Ontario red wine and vodka harmonize in this harvest-coloured drink, which is an ideal welcome cocktail for fall entertaining.
The tart lemonade and bright cranberries balance the richness of our Crispy Pork Cracklings, making a delightful pairing to kick off any harvest feast.
By Charlene Rooke
1½ oz vodka
4 oz chilled lemonade, store-bought or homemade
½ oz red wine
Fresh or frozen cranberries for garnish
Granulated sugar (optional)
1. Combine vodka and lemonade and stir together in a lowball or rocks glass. Add cubed or crushed ice to fill glass.
2. Measure wine into a measuring cup or other pouring vessel. Over the rounded back of a spoon, slowly pour the wine to form a float on top of the lemonade.
3. Thread a few cranberries onto a pick. If desired, lightly moisten with a damp paper towel and dip into granulated sugar. Garnish and serve.
