Cocktail Hour: "Black Blood"

For my adults only, spooky glam dinner party, I created a sinister looking cocktail that was bubbling with "black blood" Combining the delightfully refreshing and sparkle-enlivened Lambrusco with Cassis Liqueur and fresh blackberries, this is a fruity cocktail with subtle floral overtones.  It's not too strong so it's perfect for sipping All Hallow's Eve long.....
