Method
step 1
Mix together the red wine, lemonade, soda water and a good squeeze of lime juice. If you have a high-powered blender, freeze the mixture in ice cubes and then throw the lot in the blender just before serving.
step 2
Alternatively, pour into a freezer box, freeze for 2 hrs, then use a fork to stir through the ice crystals and freeze again for 2 hrs, stirring again as before. Repeat until you have a slushy mixture of ice grains, then freeze until needed.
step 3
When ready to serve, scrape up the ice crystals with a fork and stir. To serve, load the icy mixture into four chilled glasses. Serve with a wheel of lemon or lime to garnish.
