    Wine Cocktails are my Favorite!

    I love to make wine cocktails. They are the best of both worlds and let me be creative and experiment with all the flavors. All of these easy mixed drinks include wine so you can choose your favorite varietal and start mixing!

    I'm a total spritzer gal. And I LOVE white wine sangria. But using wine as just one ingredient in a cocktail recipe is so much fun. Wine has such a unique flavor and it marries perfectly with so many other flavors!

    But they aren't really that common. I always get so excited when I see a wine cocktail on a menu.

    Cocktails with wine are easy to make at home. Most start with a bottle of chilled wine plus simple ingredients you probably already have at home.

    I've broken up the recipes by type of wine. Champagne cocktails are generally super easy and most often is paired with just another ingredient or two. 

    Most are single-serve but there are a few wine drinks that make enough for a crowd (trust me, it will still go quickly!).

    Tips

    • For any of the recipes that require only a small amount of champagne or sparkling wine, pick up the mini bottles or canned wine from the store! Of course, if you are making more than one, by all means, open a whole bottle. But if you are just making one or two for yourself, there won't be waste!
