  • 1 lemon, sliced

Method

  1. Make a sugar syrup by dissolving sugar and water in a small saucepan. Set aside.
  2. Combine sliced lemons, sliced oranges, cloves, cinnamon sticks, red wine, and cranberry juice in a large saucepan. Cook over low heat for 30 minutes. Be careful not to boil your mixture! It needs to simmer on low heat.
  3. Remove the saucepan from the heat.
  4. Slowly stir in your sugar mixture until well combined.
  5. Pour cold, still water into your Sodacoo Sparkling Water Machine and fizz.
