Ingredients

4 servings

2 large oranges, (rinsed well)
1 large lemon, (rinsed well)
1/4 cup granulated white sugar ((I like to use superfine sugar))
1/4 cup Triple Sec
One 750ml. bottle inexpensive, fruity, medium-bodied red wine, (chilled)
drizzle of brandy ((optional, but good!))
extra orange slices, (for garnish (if desired))

Steps

Slice one orange, and squeeze the juice out of the 2nd orange.  Slice the lemon.
Add sliced orange and lemon and sugar to a large pitcher; mash gently with wooden spoon until the fruit releases some juice, but is not totally crushed, and sugar dissolves, about 1 minute. Stir in the orange juice, Triple Sec, and wine; refrigerate for at least 2, and up to 8 hours.
Before serving, stir again and add a drizzle of brandy (if using). Serve immediately over ice cubes in individual glasses.  Or, if it's well-chilled, you may choose not to use ice at all.
