Notes
Tinto de Verano is a popular Spanish drink that is typically enjoyed during the summer months.
You can adjust the quantities of red wine and lime soda based on your taste preferences. If you prefer a lighter and less alcoholic version, increase the amount of soda.
Feel free to experiment with different fruits for garnish. Strawberries, blueberries, or even slices of lemon can add a delightful twist to the drink.
If you prefer a sweeter Tinto de Verano, you can add a sweetener like simple syrup or honey to the mixture. Adjust the amount to taste.
For a more festive presentation, you can rim the glasses with sugar or salt before adding the ice and drink mixture.
Consider adding a sprig of fresh mint to each glass for extra aroma and flavor.
You can also try adding slices of cucumber, watermelon, or even a few basil leaves for a unique twist.
