Ingredients
1 bottle Pinot Grigio
½ cup white grape juice
¼ cup sugar
1 cup fresh cranberries
3 sprigs of rosemary
2 granny smith apples, small dice
Directions
1
In a small saucepan, combine grape juice, sugar and 1 cup of wine; bring to a boil. A watched pot never boils so ya might as well take a few swigs of wine while you wait, right? You're just passing the time.
2
Add cranberries and cook for 30 seconds. When they begin to pop, they're ready.
3
Strain cranberries, reserving the wine syrup.
4
Add rosemary to hot syrup and set aside to steep.
5
In a pitcher, combine remaining wine, blanched cranberries, and apples. It's best to chop the apples right before this step.
6
Chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour, then add cooled wine syrup.
7
Garnish with candied rosemary and serve. Now this is how you celebrate Christmas!
