Can you make a mixed drink with wine?Someone gave me a merlot and it's awful.Can I sugar it up?!
I know I can use it to cook,but I really don't do much of that!.I'm just not a fan of merlot and opened it just because he was over!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
A spritzer is when you add some type of carbonated beverage to the wine!. I'd add soda water or 7-up to the red merlot, then a twist of lemom or lime or orange!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Ever heard of Sangria!?!?!?
Add some oranges, and lemons/limes/pineapples some juice of your choice (apple or orange is best), a cup of sugar and let it sit for a night or two in a large glass pitcher in your refridgerator or other cool spot!.!.!.then drink it all up!.!.!.Best stuff ever!.
You can also add some brandy or tequila if you want it a little stronger!.
By the way!.!.!.any wine can be used!.!.!.but your in luck, because merlot is actually the favorite for such a recipe!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Make mulled wine (cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, sugar to taste, water to thin it out, heat until warm)!. Or a sangria (sliced oranges, lemons (limes if you want), sugar, (cherry juice if you want), water if you want to water it down a little, ice (you can add orange juice too)!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
