## Notes:

- *Wine:* traditionally it should be a Spanish wine, but I find it doesn't make a big difference. I use cheap Carbernets and/or red blends.

- *Brandy:* depending on how strong you want it. Traditionally it should be a Spanish brandy, but a good one is hard to find in the US, a cognac may work as a substitute. Nothing too fancy, you just want a decent one that does not taste like rubbing alcohol, as I find many cheap American brands do. Something reasonably smooth with some flavor to it. I use [Osborne Solera Veterano](https://www.wine-searcher.com/find/osborne+veterano+solera+brandy+andalucia+spain/1/usa-7065-200), which can be difficult to find.

- *Orange juice:* Careful with the volume, you want to taste the orange without it overpowering the alcohol. Amount you use will depend on amounts/strength of flavor of your alcohol.

- *Brown sugar:* to taste. Maybe more if you want to mellow out the alcohol flavor a bit.

- *Fruits:* amounts are flexible, will not have a dramatic effect on flavor, just keep adding them until the liquid mix looks about half full of fruit
- *Wine:* Traditionally, a Spanish red. Cheap Portuguese reds, Carbernets and/or red blends also work well.

- *Brandy:* Traditionally,a Spanish brandy, but could be any decent cognac or brandy. Nothing too fancy, you just want a decent one that does not taste like rubbing alcohol. Something reasonably smooth with some flavor to it. I use [Osborne Solera Veterano](https://www.wine-searcher.com/find/osborne+veterano+solera+brandy+andalucia+spain/1/usa-7065-200).
