Summer is just a few days away, and that means it's time to embrace the season with some refreshing summer drinks. Entertaining expert Paul Zahn joined Inside South Florida to share some fantastic options for summer sipping. Let's dive into the perfect beverages to enjoy in the sunny months ahead.
A Sophisticated Wine Option: Sommsation
Paul kicks things off with a delightful wine selection from Sommsation. This is your one-stop shop for independently produced wines and exclusive wine experiences that you wouldn’t easily find on your own. Sommsation offers a wine shop, wine club, private tastings, sommelier services, virtual experiences, and custom gift services. Their online wine shop features hundreds of incredible wines from some of the best small, independent, and family-owned wineries in the world. They even have sommeliers available to guide you through a private wine tasting and give you expert advice on which wines to buy for your next big event. They can even plan winery visits and travel for you. For more ways to enjoy the incredible offerings from Sommsation, check out their website at sommsation.com and learn about their recently launched Rebel Wine Club.
Scotch with a Tropical Twist: Chivas Scotch & Goya Vap
Next, Paul introduces us to Chivas Regal 12 Year Old, a scotch whisky known for its quality and smooth taste. It boasts distinctive notes of crisp orchard fruits, wild heather, and sweet honey. This summer, Chivas has teamed up with Goya to release a limited edition Golden Summer Value Added Pack. The kit includes Chivas 12 Year Old Scotch Whisky, Goya Pineapple Nectar, and Goya Coconut Water, perfect for crafting tropical cocktails like the Pineapple Gold Rush and the Chivas Coco Ice A cocktail. You can find this special pack at reservebar.com or key retailers in Florida for around $32.
Refreshing Italian Flair: Pallini Limoncello Spritz
For a taste of Italy, Paul recommends the Pallini Spritz, which can be made with or without alcohol. Pallini Limoncello, made with special Sfusato lemons from the Amalfi Coast, is the star of this spritz. The recipe is simple: three parts Prosecco, two parts Pallini Limoncello, and one part soda. For a non-alcoholic version, use Pallini Limon Zero. You can enjoy this refreshing drink at Italica Midtown Miami or make it at home by purchasing Pallini Limoncello from Total Wine, totalwine.com.
Easy Grab-and-Go Option: Vosa Vodka Water
For those who prefer ready-to-drink options, Vosa Vodka Water is an excellent choice. These cans feature six times distilled vodka, natural fruit juices, no artificial sweeteners or preservatives, and come in both non-carbonated and lightly carbonated options. With sleek packaging inspired by Mediterranean summers, Vosa Vodka Water is co-owned by supermodel Kate Upton. Drinking one of these will surely make you feel like a supermodel this summer. Available at totalwine.com.
With these fantastic drink options, you’re sure to find something to suit your summer vibe. From sophisticated wines and scotch with a tropical twist to refreshing Italian spritzes and convenient vodka water cans, Paul Zahn has you covered.
