This is a light and refreshing “be careful because it’s easy to suck down quickly” concoction. There is also not much fuss in making it which the hostess in me really appreciates. Of course, you can enjoy this any time of the year but next week, in particular, it will be ideal for the occasion. Cheers to fireworks, independence, and the acceptance of the wine spritzer.
