Cran-apple fizz
In the morning, put 1 litre cranberry
juice, 1 litre apple juice and 1 litre
sparkling water in the fridge to chill.

together with a few fresh cranberries

jug or serving bowl, then top up with the
sparkling water.

Put the red wine, cinnamon, star anise,
cloves, lemon zest and sugar in a large
pan. Cook on a low heat for 10 mins,
then remove from the heat and cool,
leaving to infuse for about 30 mins. To

sloe gin and pour into mugs.
