Want to learn how to make a tinto de verano at home? It’s super easy! Here’s how to make it.

Ingredients

• Young red wine (non-aged)
• Soda water
• Lemon
• Ice

Instructions

Start off by taking either a pitcher or a glass, depending on how large of a drink that you would like to make. 

After you have done this, add equal parts of soda water, a neutral-tasting drink that contains carbonated water and sugar, and young red wine. You want a wine that hasn’t been aged and that has light to medium flavor and body, such as Spain’s famous tempranillo.

After mixing the two beverages together, take a couple of ice cubes and put it inside of your glass.

Garnish the drink with a slice of lemon, squeezing it into the drink if you would like to add a bit of citrus flavor.

That’s it! Your tinto de verano is ready to be drunk. We hope you enjoy!

Try out this White Russian recipe, which uses a special ingredient to put a twist on this classic drink. The addition of Spanish “licor cafe,” which has a stronger flavor and contains more alcohol than the typical coffee liquors used in the preparation of White Russians, allows a lower vodka content.

Check it out!

Ingredients:

• 2 parts “licor cafe”
• 1 part vodka
• 1 part heavy cream
• Ice (if making a cold cocktail)

Instructions:

1. Start off by placing a few cubes of ice in an old fashioned glass if you are preparing a cold White Russian. If you prefer a hot White Russian, skip this step.
2. Go ahead and put the two parts licor cafe and one part vodka into your glass. After this, add the heavy cream and stir well.
3. If you want to heat up your drink, place it into the microwave for about thirty seconds.

Ingredients:

• 6 oz fresh raspberries

• 3 1/2 cups cold sparkling water
• 1/2 cup water

Ingredients

• 50 ml vodka
• 25 ml lemon juice
• zest of 1/2 a lemon
• 1 tablespoon white caster sugar
• 25 ml triple sec
• ice

Instructions

For the lemon drop cocktail, you will need a cocktail shaker and a martini glass. If you don’t have one you can always use any other cute cocktail glass.

Before you start making your drink place the glass in the fridge. It has to be cold.

Get a small glass and fill it with the finely grated lemon zest and white caster sugar. Mix the two ingredients very well.

Fill the cocktail shaker with the vodka, lemon juice, triple sec and ice.

Start shaking it and stop when the shaker becomes cold.

Get the glass out of the fridge. Use a small plate to add the sugar and lemon zest mix on it.

Put the rim of the glass in water, then dip it in the plate with sugar.

Pour the drink from the shaker into the glass. Decorate with a lemon slice.

Ingredients

• 1 bottle Aperol
• 1 bottle chilled Prosecco
• ice
• soda
• orange slices

Instructions

To prepare this signature Italian cocktail you will need balloon glasses. Another way to go is wine glasses as well.

This recipe is meant for 8 to 11 servings, which means you can enjoy it with your whole family or a group of friends. Simply get the number of glasses that you need and you’re ready to go.

Fill each glass with ice cubes. The Aperol and Prosecco should be in equal parts. Most recipes suggest a ratio of 3:2:1 Prosecco:Aperol:soda, but this one is much more authentic and allows you to better experience the taste of Aperol.

When you’re done with the first step, you can simply top up the glasses with soda. Use the orange slices to decorate the Aperol Spritz.

Well, in simple terms, a shandy is a mix of a lemon drink with beer. While it might look weird at first glance, I can promise you that the wheaty, citrusy notes of this summer favorite are refreshing and delicious. Here’s a simple recipe that you can follow in order to make your own at home.

Ingredients

• 1 part beer

We recommend to use a beer with a light character and low hop content. Some of my favorite beer options for a shandy are wheat beers and pilsners. It depends on what sort of flavors you want to dominate the beer part of the recipe.

• 1 part homemade sparkling lemonade

It’s easy to make a batch of sparkling lemonade at home. Just follow whatever recipe you use for lemonade and substitute sparkling water for regular water.

• Ice cubes (optional)

Ice cubes are optional, but it’s essential to drink shandies cold. If not, it’ll be off-putting and unenjoyable.

Instructions

Pour one part beer and one part sparkling lemonade to a pint glass. Stir gently, being careful not to agitate the carbonation in the beverage too much.

Add ice cubes, if desired, and garnish with a lemon slice if you’d like. Enjoy!
