Directions Boil water, sugar, and cinnamon over medium heat for 5 minutes, then allow to cool.

Remove the cinnamon stick and scrape off excess syrup.

Cut the fruit into chunks, place in bowl, and cover with the sugary syrup. Chill for 2-3 hours.

Fill pitcher with ice, then add fruit, half of the syrup, orange juice, wine, and optional liquors.
