More Great Cocktails with Wine!


Listen Later

Tonight, we are having our third Wine Cocktails Show! We love these shows and I can’t wait to make some of these cocktails for family and friends. We are expecting this show to be more of the same. Tonight, we will one White Wine Cocktail and one Red Wine Cocktails.

Last year, our winning cocktail was the Caribou. I actually prefer the Blood Letter Trinidad Sour. So I am crowning it the new champion. We will see if one of the cocktails tonight can take the title.

Tonight, we are enjoying:

  1. St Germain Cocktail. This is a simple drink to make. Put ice in a Collins glass, pour in 1½  oz. St Germain, 2 oz white or sparkling wine (we used Sauvignon Blanc), 2 oz. club soda. Stir and top with a lemon twist. That’s it – you are done. Enjoy.
  2. Devils Margarita. This is for Tequila fans. Pour 1½ oz. Tequila Blanco, 1 oz. fresh lime juice, and ¾ oz. simple syrup in a shaker with ice. Shake until cold, then strain over ice in a rocks glass. Then float ½ oz. red wine by pouring slowly over the back of a bar spoon. Garnish with a lime wedge.

We both loved the St. Germain Cocktail and rated it a 5 and a 4. We both liked the Devils Margarita and rated it a 3.

Next week, we will have a Budget Wine Show and all three wines will be under $10. Join us and see if we can find a great wine for under $10.
