There's nothing better than mixing friends, great
food and thirst quenching drinks - the perfect ingredients for a
balmy summer night.
To help your party last long into the evening,
it's far better to serve drinks that are lighter in alcohol to help
avoid dehydration.
The added bonus is that your head remains clearer
and your enjoyment lasts longer!
These recipes are both party drinks, ideal for
those long summer days and warm barbecue nights.
Riesling is one of the world's greatest grapes
and in this combination with the dry cider and lemonade it'll be
loved by everyone.
The Chablis Cup features the fabulous Chardonnay
grape with the sophisticated addition of a little Cointreau. The
tang of the tonic counterbalances the zing of the lemonade and the
cucumber of course gives you added cool!
