½ medium lime, cut into 3 wedges, divided
2 tablespoons white sugar, or to taste
1 cup ice cubes, or as needed
1 ½ fluid ounces white rum
½ cup club soda, or as needed

Directions

Gather the ingredients.
Place mint leaves and 1 lime wedge into a sturdy glass. Use a muddler and crush to release mint oils and lime juice.
Add remaining lime wedges and 2 tablespoons sugar, and muddle again to release the lime juice. Do not strain the mixture.
Fill the glass almost to the top with ice.
Pour in rum and fill the glass with club soda.

1 (750 milliliter) bottle dry Spanish red wine
½ cup brandy
½ cup triple sec
⅓ cup frozen lemonade concentrate
⅓ cup orange juice
¼ cup lemon juice
¼ cup white sugar (Optional)
1 medium orange, sliced into rounds
1 medium lemon, sliced into rounds
1 medium lime, sliced into rounds
8 maraschino cherries
2 cups carbonated water (Optional)

Directions

Gather all ingredients.
Mix red wine, brandy, triple sec, lemonade concentrate, orange juice, lemon juice, and sugar together in a bowl. Add orange, lemon and lime slices, and maraschino cherries.

You can use ginger ale instead of club soda if preferred.
