Bishop Cocktail

A cocktail with red wine as the base. I like it a bit sweeter, so I increased the simple syrup from 3/4 oz to 1 oz. Use a fruity, full-bodied wine like a cabernet sauvignon.

Ingredients

• 1  thick lemon slice
• 1  ounce  simple syrup
• 1  ounce white rum
• 2  ounces red wine

Directions

1. In the bottom of a cocktail shaker, muddle lemon wheel with simple syrup (pound the lemon with the end of a thick wooden spoon or a muddler to extract the juice and the oils from the rind). Add rum, and fill canister halfway with ice. Cover and shake well. Drain into a goblet.
2. Add 3 ice cubes and red wine to goblet. Stir gently and garnish with a half-slice of lemon.
