Easy cocktails for spring time

Want to make a special event at home? Tired of the Mimosas and Margaritas? here I leave you 3 simple (and not that famous) cocktails to make in less than 5 minutes. Use them to refresh your friends/date or whatever specimen that you invite to lay in your couch.



Tinto de Verano: Easy as sh... one part of red wine and one part of lemonade (Sparkling better) or orange fanta. Serve it in a tall glass with a lot of ice and some lime or orange slices (good wine = good flavor but please do not use a Rioja Reserva or a puppy will die).

I love this drink. It is really popular in Spain when the Spring comes!



Rebujito: this drink its all good memories... Very popular in the south of Spain during the Feria de Abril and really refreshing too. The only problem is that you need Manzanilla to prepare it (White Sherry wine) so you will need to go to Whole Foods and spend a bit more of money to get it. But trust me, it worth it!


One part of Manzanilla and one part of Seven Up or Sprite. Personally, I like to put some mint or spearmint leaves on it. Prepare a big jar with a lot of ice and serve it in small glass without any ice and one or two leaves of spearmint.




SpritzMamma mia questo cocktail รจ meraviglioso!! there is many variations to make this Italian Cocktail but, the one that I like the most is:  Two parts of white whine and one part of Apperol. Serve it with ice and a slice of orange. This is a very refreshing Italian cocktail that I absolutely Recomend. the bitter taste of Apperol and the refreshing touch of white wine makes it ideal for a BBQ outside or a meeting with friends! I am pretty sure that you can find Apperol in a specialiced liquor house or a place like Whole Foods. As I said with the Rebujito it worth to search for it.
