Every summer, my husband and I create a new summer cocktail that we can take to the pool or even to the beach. Most years, our cocktail is rum and fruit punch based. This year, with the help of CK Mondavi wines and their cocktail challenge, our summer cocktails will be wine based.
The first of our summer wine cocktails is my personal favorite using watermelon, lime, and CK Mondavi Sauvignon Blanc. We made this one over the Independence Day camping weekend, took it to the pool, and even served it from the watermelon. Most of the other swimmers were just a tad jealous!
