Ah, Rosé…you pretty, pretty beverage.
From the palest peach wine to sparkling coral bubbles…from delicately sweet to tangy and tart…from the bottle or a box…there’s a rosé for perfect for any summer day. (If you need help finding one, here’s a good start.)
And as if we needed more excuses for rosé-sipping, 1) the second Saturday in June (this year it’s the 10th) is National Rosé Day, and 2) it’s lovely in cocktails. Like this Sparkling Rosé Sangria.
Raise a glass.
