Thyme Limoncello Spritz

June 15, 2018 By Shannah Coe Leave a Comment

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Riondo Prosecco. All opinions are 100% mine.

An easy drinking cocktail, like a thyme limoncello spritz, is perfect for all your summer activities. From a backyard BBQ to a bridal shower, you can never go wrong serving this cocktail!

During the spring and summer months, I love changing up my routine and enjoying light, easy cocktails like this thyme limoncello spritz. This super simple cocktail only requires a few ingredients and is topped off with Riondo Prosecco for the perfect finish.

Just like Champagne, the term prosecco refers to a sparkling wine that is using a specific type of grape from a specific region: glera grapes grown in the north-east Veneto region of Italy. Prosecco is typically extremely reasonably priced and has become popular thanks to its light, fruity taste with just a hint of sweetness.

Riondo Prosecco is an authentic Italian sparkling wine and actually is the #1 sparkling wine in Italy. It features a twist off cap making it super easy to enjoy. Of course, you can also find Riondo Prosecco with a traditional cork closure too. No matter which bottle type I choose, I love using it in my cocktails because it provides just the right amount of effervescence.

A thyme limoncello spritz is like taking a quick trip to Italy with each taste. I love how light and refreshing it is with the perfect amount of bubbles thanks to Riondo Prosecco.

Pink Grapefruit Sorbet Mimosa

May 4, 2018 By Shannah Coe 2 Comments

A mimosa is a classic brunch cocktail. But, it doesn’t always have to be boring orange juice. Try this pink grapefruit sorbet mimosa for a fun twist on an old classic.

If you think of any brunch, bridal shower or even mother’s day event you’ve been to, chances are it involved mimosas. At least, it did if you it was fun (hehe). I love changing up mimosas to add new and different flavors while still keeping it a simple cocktail that doesn’t require a lot of work to prep. This pink grapefruit sorbet mimosa is perfect for any event and requires just two ingredients.

Crockpot Cranberry Apple Bourbon Punch

September 29, 2017 By Shannah Coe 1 Comment

I always love that switch in seasons where you no longer reach for an ice cold drink but instead want to wrap your hands around something warm. The start of football season for us is always late August which means the weather is still hot. By late September or early October, there is a slight chill in the air and all our tailgating musts change. The same goes for outdoor parties. It on those cool days and evenings that I reach for a glass of this cranberry apple bourbon punch.

Don’t let the kids have all the fun this summer! Whip up these 4 delicious Wine Slushie popsicles and beat the heat all summer long! Choose from white wine margarita, tropical white wine, red wine, or mixed berry red wine slush! You’ll love how refreshing these are to enjoy on a hot summer day!

Summertime is here! The kids are out of school, the days are long and it is hot hot hot outside. I still enjoy having a glass of wine the evening but, sometimes, on the super hot days, I prefer a cold wine slushie instead.
