How to make it

Method

01

Chill the glass, the wine and the can. This drink has nowhere to hide if any of them is warm.

02

Fill the glass with ice and pour in the wine.

03

Top with the Spruce Tip & Lemon, roughly twice as much as the wine.

04

Add the lemon slice and the sprig. Do not stir; the pour has done it for you.

The tip

No wine in the house? A dry cider works surprisingly well and makes the whole thing taste of October.
