- 2 ounces Campari
- 2 ounces triple sec
- 1 ounce simple syrup (or more to taste)
- Angostura bitters

Instructions
- Cut two slices from the middle of the middle of the orange and muddle them in the bottom of a large pitcher. Juice the remainder of the orange and add along with the wine, limoncello, Campari, triple sec and simple syrup. Stir to combine.
