Eva PizarroSommelier at Fierro restaurant and trainer at Tandem Gastronómico.At Bodega de Consum, we have decided to refresh your summer without giving up wine. We already gave you the best recipes to make a good sangria, so today we give you some tips to show off your tinto de verano.Let's first look at the difference between the two drinks: Tinto de verano is a mixture that only includes wine, soda and lots of ice. Whereas sangria is made by mixing soda, wine with a touch of liqueur, chopped fresh fruit and sugar.Sangria could be considered a cocktail because of how it’s made, while tinto de verano would be a combinado (a mixture of two drinks), but let's see some variations that can make it the queen of the summer season:This drink originated in Vargas, Cordoba, which is unsurprising given its high temperatures and the consequent need to adapt wine to these conditions. It was born as a blend of red wine and siphon.The drink has evolved until it’s marketed ready to drink, in the Consum drinks section you can find it in its original and non-alcoholic version.How to give it a twist if you make it or buy it?-The simplest and most popular is to pour the contents into a pitcher, add ice to taste and a few slices of lemon.-If you prefer, swap the soda for a lemon soda.-You can also try other citrus fruits: orange will give it a very Mediterranean touch, or grapefruit for lovers of more bitter drinks.-The wine you use should be a young red, as it will bring freshness and all the nuances of the fruit.-And if you want to try something different, try to make your own recipe with white wine.With all these tips you are ready to enjoy the most refreshing summer!
