Ingredients & Substitutions
When choosing your red wine, look for one that’s vegan-friendly. Some brands use animal-derived fining agents, so I love brands that are explicitly labeled as vegan. And feel free to adjust the sweetness with the maple syrup – you know your taste best!
Tips & Notes

- •If you want a non-alcoholic version, you can use grape juice or a non-alcoholic red wine.
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes, I’ll add a splash of cranberry juice for a tart twist.
