What is Tinto de verano?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Tinto de verano<\/em> is a popular summer drink in Spain. We have inherited the love for this simple and refreshing drink. It’s often consumed during the hot summer months. Tinto<\/em> de verano<\/em> translates to “summer red wine,” widely available in bars and restaurants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a simple drink, yet refreshing and delicious. Made with red wine and carbonated beverages, typically lemon-lime soda, preparing tinto de verano is a breeze! You only have to mix equal parts of young red wine and the lemon-lime soda of your choice, then serve it over ice cubes with lemon slices (you also add orange slices). And that’s it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sangria or Tinto de verano?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

With fewer ingredients, ti<\/em>nto de verano<\/em> is a simpler and more casually consumed drink in Spain than traditional sangria, another Spanish wine-based beverage with more ingredients. Tinto de verano<\/em> provides a delightful and easy way to enjoy wine on a hot summer day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can make it in a large pitcher as they do in restaurants. Or pour the wine over ice in individual glasses<\/a>, complete with the lemon soda, and enjoy the sparkles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When it is hot in Spain, instead of sangria -which we love in Venezuela, or the delicious white wine sangria<\/a> that is trendy in the US, Spaniards drink tinto de verano<\/em>. They have gazpacho<\/a> and drink tinto de verano<\/em>. Easy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is the best red wine to make Tinto de Verano<\/em>?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When making tinto de verano<\/em>, you don’t necessarily need a high-end or expensive wine. After all, the wine will be mixed with citrus soda, diluting and altering its original flavor. So, choose red table wine, like the wine you’ll drink with your everyday meal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
