Peach and White Wine Cocktail

This concoction is ideal for sipping on a warm summer afternoon. Simply mix peach juice, a touch of sparkling water, and your favorite white wine, and for an extra kick, a splash or two of peach brandy. Garnish with fresh peaches and a sprig of mint. 

Mint and Apple Red Wine Cocktail 

Place fresh mint leaves and apple juice in a cocktail shaker, muddle together, and add your choice of red wine and shaved ice. Carefully strain into chilled martini glasses, garnish with a sprig of mint, and serve. This cocktail is an excellent choice when the occasion calls for a touch of elegance. 

Mexican Pinot Noir Cocktail 

Mix your favorite tequila with grapefruit soda, agave nectar, a splash of lime juice, pinot noir, and shaved ice and shake them up in a cocktail shaker. Strain into a chilled glass, garnish with a slice of lime, and serve with your favorite Mexican entrée. Although the grapefruit juice adds a sour note, the agave nectar nonetheless keeps this on the sweet side. This cocktail is particularly welcome when summer temperatures soar. 

Tropical Chardonnay Cocktail

Chardonnay usually isn't associated with tropical flavors, but it blends perfectly with rum, pineapple juice, and a splash of vanilla bean syrup. Blend these in a cocktail shaker with some shaved ice, strain into tall, chilled glasses, and garnish with a fresh piece of pineapple. 

Grape Vodka and Sparkling Wine Cocktail

This one is easy to whip up in a flash when you need to come up with a sophisticated adult beverage in a short amount of time. Mix grape-flavored vodka with lemon juice, your favorite sparkling white wine, and a splash of simple syrup for added sweetness, and strain through a cocktail shaker with some shaved ice.
