Chef's Tips
- Wine Choice: Use a medium-bodied red wine like Rioja or Tempranillo for authentic flavor.
- Sweetness: Adjust sugar to taste, or substitute with honey or agave syrup.
- Fruit Variations: Try adding peaches, berries, or pineapple for a twist.
- Chilling Time: Longer chilling enhances the fruit flavors—overnight is ideal.
- Non-Alcoholic Option: Replace wine with grape juice and omit brandy for a kid-friendly version.
- Presentation: Garnish with fresh mint leaves for an elegant touch.
