Happy Strug Boat Saturday! Colin Anderson and Candice Chetta are SUPER excited for this episode because it’s one of our favorite kinds of episodes — we are giving you some of our favorite rose spritzer recipes because it is finally TIME. Spring is springing, summer is cusping, and we’re ready for everything cold and bubbly (not that we ever stop drinking spritzers, but we love having an excuse to make a whole episode about it!) Definitely tune into this one if you’re looking for some seriously sweet spring drink inspo! Honestly, it would never be a Strug Boat if we didn’t do just a LITTLE Bravo news, so of course, we’re talking about The Vanderpump Rules reunion and then we’re doing a little RHONY news! We have to talk about Dorinda’s drinking and Bethenny confronting her! What a weekend! Thank you for tuning in!

Recipes:
The Classic:
Fill pint glass with ice.
Fill ¾ way with your favorite rose
Finish with your favorite seltzer or mineral water. We love a La Croix… and more recently, the much more affordable Bubly brand seltzer… The lime is nice!
Rosé/Aperol Spritz, An Homage To Camillo Restaurant’s Cocktail:
Ice
Start with medium to full body rose, that’s pretty balanced. Lots of flavor.
Add a splash (~3/4oz) of Aperol
A significant lemon twist, like a big ol’ piece of twisted rind
Top with seltzer
Blueberry Barge Special:
Add ice and a handful of frozen blueberries to pint glass.
A dry, light bodied rose would be amazing in this one.
Orange slice
Top with cran raspberry La Croix
Rose Colada:
Ice and handful frozen pineapple to pint glass.
Medium bodied, dry rose would be nice. Something fruit forward.
2-3 dashes Bittermen’s Tiki Bitters,
Finish with coconut La Croix
The grown up Shirley Temple:
Ice (obv, a pint glass)
Medium bodied, sweet and fruity rose.
1/2oz Rose’s grenadine
As many damn cherries as you want because you’re an adult now.
Top with lemon/lime seltzer.
