Farm Stand Fruits Combine With Rosé and White Wines For A Fresh Take On Happy Hour
Napa, CA, July 15, 2020- Bright and bursting with the flavors of summer, wine cocktails from CK Mondavi and Family are the perfect pairing for backyard family BBQs, warm evenings by the pool and al fresco dining. Lower in alcohol than traditional mixed drinks, they maximize wine’s natural crisp acidity and bright aromas, for a lively and refreshing summer beverage.
“I always stop at roadside stands or the farmer’s market for the juiciest fruit and berries during the summer, and I love combining them with our CK Mondavi and Family wines for a completely new flavor sensation,” said Riana Mondavi, fourth generation of the Mondavi family. “Our friends at Barkeep SF even created a Sangria recipe that takes advantage of the bounty of the season.”
Visit here for Barkeep SF’s recipe for “A Rosé By Any Other Name” Sangria, which features the new CK Mondavi and Family Spritzed Rosé Moscato, along with other wine cocktails, like a Watermelon Lime Slushie, Very Berry Mojito and more.
