Enjoy Wine in Summer
floating wine ice
The new standard for summer wine is “ice wine,” which is chilled and rocked with ice in the wine.Just adding ice will dilute the wine, but if you freeze the wine and make wine ice, you don't have to worry about the taste changing.You can enjoy various shapes of ice cube trays and if they look cute, that alone will make you feel better.You can also enjoy wine in a whiskey glass with ice cubes floating on it!
Kachiwari Wine
The “Kachiwari” style of adding ice to the wine is perfect for the hot summer.Ice with wine is evil!You might think that, but you can enjoy it more freely without being bound by stereotypes, and its charm will expand.In the summer, adding ice to the wine weakens the alcohol content, making it a great way to drink.You can enjoy a different taste by using simple crushed ice.
Fashionable with wine cocktails
Wine cocktails that allow you to enjoy a variety of tastes with free ideas can be arranged beautifully in terms of appearance and color.If you dilute it with soda or juice, or use a small bottle of liqueur, the astringency, spiciness, and sourness unique to wine will be neutralized, and you will be able to discover a new taste.Decorate with lemon, add salt to the rim of the glass, and stick to a refreshing summery visual to double the fun!
