TINTO DE VERANO (SUMMER RED
WINE-FROM SPAIN)
 
red wine (cheap is better since it's going to be mixed)
sparkling lemonade (Trader Joe's, Wholefoods, Casera, Fanta lemon)
ice

Mix wine and sparkling lemonade half and half over ice. You can adjust the proportions depending on personal preference. Many people use more mixer if it is a hot day (it's more refreshing that way).

Cook's Note: You can make your own substitute for sparkling lemonade by squeezing fresh lemon juice, then add soda water and sugar or honey to taste. Add some grated lemon peel to add a brighter lemon taste.

Had this often in Spain and Portugal. I've heard tourists drink sangrķa, natives drink tinto. Both are wonderful in my opinion.
