Spanish Tinto De Verano

Literally 'Summer red wine', it's an ultra-simple tasty drink for hot days. I've known bartenders to make it with a shot of brandy or rum. I go without but by all means try it! Note: I make this by the cup so measurements are estimates.

SERVES 8 -10 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 1 (750 ml) bottle red wine (a cheap tempranillo works great, or any medium bodied red)

  • 2 liters lime flavored seltzer water
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 4 slices oranges (to garnish)

Directions

  1. 1
    Fill 16 oz. glass about 1/3 of the way with wine.
  2. 2
    Mix in 1 tbsp sugar into wine.
  3. 3
    Add a few cubes ice.
  4. 4
    Top off with seltzer and mix. Taste.
  5. 5
    It will probably need more sugar, but i like to add it slowly. I've found there's a fine line between bitter and overly sweet when it comes to this drink. Add bit by bit, mixing and tasting as you go, until you have a refreshing summer drink.
  6. 6
    Garnish with an orange slice.
  7. 7
    Happy hunting!
