🍸 Always great to raise a glass, or three, with Melissa Lamb and Rosey Edeh
🍑 We’re starting with Folonari Prosecco, a crisp, lightly sparkling Italian white with aromas of green apple, white peach, and a touch of lemon sunshine.
🧀 This is like summer in a glass, pairing beautifully with a cheese plate or fresh fruit platters.
🏛️ Folonari is one of Italy’s oldest and most respected wine producers, founded in 1825 in the Veneto region.
🌍 It played a key role in popularizing prosecco internationally.
🍾 Now let’s mix it up with a cocktail, the Paloma Mimosa.
🍊 This cocktail combines the fizz of a Mimosa with the citrusy zing of a Stirrings Paloma Cocktail Mix.
✨ Now let’s make it into a mocktail by swapping the prosecco with St. Regis Alcohol-Free Sparkling Sauvignon Blanc.
🍷 I have the Leyda Sauvignon Blanc from Chile.
🍋 This is like someone bottled a perfect day at the beach—bursting with lime zest, passion fruit, and a salty sea breeze finish.
🌮 It’s a dream with ceviche, grilled shrimp tacos, or anything citrusy and fresh.
🧂 Now let’s turn that zing into a zesty cocktail by adding Stirrings Margarita Cocktail Mix.
🌅 Let’s turn it into a beautiful mocktail using the St. Regis Alcohol-Free Sparkling Rosé instead of the wine for a sunset-pink, bubbly treat.
🏺 Lamole di Lamole Chianti Classico is a Tuscan treasure with notes of black cherry, dried herbs, and earthy richness.
🍖 Pair it with grilled lamb, fennel salami, or a hearty eggplant lasagna.
⛰️ This winery sits at one of the highest elevations in Chianti Classico—about 550 metres above sea level—where the altitude creates cool nights and intense aromatics in the wine.
🔥 To turn it into a cocktail, mix it with The Great Gentleman Spicy Cola.
🥂 This is savoury, spicy and fizzy like a Tuscan aperitivo walked into a hip Montreal bar.
