Method
Preparation
Rosso-style grape-tea base: steep 1 g rooibos, 1 g black tea, 2 g thin orange zest and 1 lightly crushed allspice berry in 60 ml just-boiled water for 4 minutes. Fine-strain, then add water to bring the strained infusion back to 60 ml. Combine this infusion with 60 ml unsweetened red grape juice, 10 ml Sammy agave and 10 ml fresh lemon juice. Cool before use. Measure the amount specified for this drink. This replaces vermouth; do not add wine. Make fresh for the session, refrigerate promptly and keep chilled.

2. Stir briefly before introducing the soda, then pour the soda slowly over the ice.
3. Lift gently once with the spoon and finish with the orange half-wheel.
