bad either!
Red Sangria.

1 ripe peach peeled and sliced
6 slices of lemon
1 1/2 oz cognac

1 tablespooon sugar or more to taste
6 oz. club soda.
Cut entire peel of the orange in a single
strip beginning at the stem and continue till
the sprial reaches the bottom of the fruit.
white part should be cut with the peel so the
fruit is exposed. leave the peel attached to
the orange so the fruit may be suspended in
the pitcher. Pour wine in glass pitcher add
the peach, lemon, cognac, triple sec,
maraschino, and sugar, stir to dissolve
sugar. carefully place orange in pitcher
fastening end of peel over the rim. let
mixture masserate at room temp at least 1
hour, add club soda and a tray of ice cubes.
