Tinto de Verano
By Groceree
Also known as Summer Red Wine Spritz

Young red wine mixed half and half with lemon soda over plenty of ice, with a slice of lemon. What Spaniards actually drink on a hot afternoon, lighter and simpler than sangría.

Notes
- Use inexpensive, young red wine — this is not the place for a good bottle.
- For a less sweet version, use half lemon soda and half sparkling water.
- Bars in Spain often make it with gaseosa, a plain sweet soda; lemon soda is the common alternative.
- For a vegan tinto de verano, choose a wine and vermouth labelled vegan; many are clarified with egg white, gelatine or casein.
