1/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup water
1/4 tsp rose flavoring
1/2 cup Chambord
1 bottle dry rose wine,chilled
1.5 cups mixed strawberries, hulled and sliced, raspberries, and blackberries
1 lemon, very thinly sliced
1 cup club soda or sparkling water, chilled
First, prepare a syrup. Bring the sugar and water to a boil in a small saucepan. Stir in the rose flavoring, cover and remove from heat. (If you can find rose geranium leaves - use that instead - about 12 leaves). Wait at least 10 minutes. If you used leaves, strain the syrup, pressing out all the liquid in the leaves, and chill in the refrigerator.
Stir together the syrup, chambord, wine, berries, and lemon in a punch bowl or in a pitcher with a wide opening. Chill for at least 30 minutes to allow the berries to release some juice into the wine. The longer it chills, the more intense the berry flavor. Stir in the club soda and serve.
