White wine spritzer
This white wine spritzer is like an easy white wine sangria recipe made from only fresh strawberries, mint, sparling water and white wine.
It’s the perfect easy summer wine cocktail recipe for parties, picnics and date nights at home.
We’ve found that date nights are so important. Sometimes it’s a sitter and out we go for drinks and small bites at lots of little bars and restaurants. Other times we create our own happy hour at home.
Date nights at home simplify everything. Put together a few things to snack on, mix up a good cocktail, and hit on the back porch or throw a picnic blanket in the yard.
On this particular at home picnic date night, that’s exactly what I did! With a simple cheese plate, a picnic blanket, bluetooth speaker, and a refreshing white wine spritzer.
