Rosé Wine Drinks To Enjoy

Rosé Wine Cocktail

Sometimes, summers get so hot that breezes become inefficient for people to cool off. It is at such times that a rosé cocktail comes in handy. The good thing about rosés is that they are generally cheap.

This affordability means that you can concoct as many rosé wine cocktails as you please without breaking the bank. With a bottle of rosé, a dash of gin and syrup, and some citrus, you can concoct a refreshing, delicious cocktail.

Ingredients

2 Lemon Wedges for Use in Garnishing
2 Slices of Grapefruit
Ice Cubes
6 Oz Rosé Wine (Choose A Good Wine)
1.5 Oz Gin
0.5 Oz Simple Syrup

Directions

Place the lemon wedges and grapefruit at the bottom of your wine glass. Proceed to add the ice cubes, gin, and rosé in the glass and be sure to stir the mixture well. Add the simple syrup to the mix and vary it depending on your desired sweetness. (If you want a sugary drink, feel free to use much more simple syrup than that indicated in the recipe. Using the amount stipulated will result in a sweet but not overly sugary cocktail.) Strain the mix into a wine glass and add the grapefruit and the lemon wedges for garnishing.

This cocktail is adequate for one person. If you want to serve more people, adjust the ingredients accordingly.
