Red and black OR red and brown will make burgandy. Keep going! 
Start with pink first, then add your burgundy with a touch of black. Or if you are using fondant you can always start with red Satin ice, or another pre-coloured red fondant, then add your colour. Also as previously stated, your colour will deepen as it sits.
I always google the color I am trying to achieve. There are a lot of painting websites that discuss colors & how to achieve them. When I googled maroon it cam up saying that it is a mix of deep red & blue. It would try starting with red & add some blue till you get your color. HTH!

Are you using Wilton? Try Americolor food colors (can purchase online or at Hobby Lobby).
