Editor's note: The recipe and introductory text below are from Feast: Food to Celebrate Life, _by Nigella Lawson._I'm not really one for cocktails and pitchers of funny drinks, but I came up with this a few years back and it was so good and the color so festive, I just had to go with it.

Ingredients

1 bottle Campari
3 cups chilled blood orange juice (from a carton)
3 cups chilled cranberry juice (also from a carton)

Preparation

  1. Mix the three components together, though you may find it easier to mix in smaller batches, making up more as you need it. Basically, it's just a third part Campari to a third part blood orange juice, to a third part cranberry juice.

Sofrito Bolognese
An ex-boyfriend’s mom—who emigrated from Colombia—made the best meat sauce—she would fry sofrito for the base and simply add cooked ground beef, sazón, and jarred tomato sauce. My version is a bit more bougie—it calls for caramelized tomato paste and white wine—but the result is just as good.
