I read elsewhere that it was wine at 11% alcohol. So it wasn't fortified. I presume you could duplicate Ripple by taking some wine, adding sugar and carbonation. Another Fred drink is Shang re la, it is ordered from a negro at a restaurant and comes in a pitcher with garbage on the bottom. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZEDQG-XpCoQ
