Ingredients

4-1/2 oz Red Wine (Malbec used here)
3 oz Four Roses Bourbon
1 oz black pepper syrup
3/4 oz freshly squeezed lime juice
4-5 burnt sage leaves
8 blackberries
4 slices of blood orange

Instructions

Burn the edges of the sage leaves and let cool for a few seconds. Add the leaves to the bottom of a mixing glass; add syrup and lime juice. Lightly muddle
Add blackberries and crush, leaving some pieces more intact than others. Pour in wine and whiskey, add orange slices, stir to combine, and cover (I used the other half of the Boston Strainer for a cover). Let sit for two days refrigerated to steep.
After two days, stir gently. Fill two rocks glasses with ice cubes. Carefully pour the contents of the mixing glass between the two glasses.
