Everyone knows the basics of wine: Reds are to be served at room temperature while Whites are best when chilled.
In order to break the rules a little bit, I'd like to share one of my favorite party drinks,
Tinto de Verano. It is a little something that every Spaniard is familiar with but very few Americans are. As the name suggests, this drink is perfect for the summer time as it is chilled red wine, mixed with Casera and served on ice.
Casera is similar to Sprite, but I have yet to find it sold anywhere in the States, so you'll need to substitute any soft drink for the Casera. (My favorite is orange soda.)
