What you need

Method

Restated from the original video

1. 1

   Take the wine straight from the fridge so the drink stays cold without ice.

2. 2

   Pour the cassis into a wine glass.

3. 3

   Add the wine slowly and stir once, gently, so it blends without losing its chill.

4. 4

   If using lemon zest, twist it over the glass to release its aroma, then drop it in.

5. 5

   Serve right away as an aperitif.
