WINE SPRITZER

Alot of times, if a bottle of red wine sits open for a couple of days, I find the flavor has changed and I don't enjoy it as much. Instead of throwing it out, I like to make wine spritzers instead. Instead of using ginger ale or seltzer, I really like them made with Fresca. Freshens up the wine and is really tasty! Add more or less Fresca for your tastes. Great for summer evenings on the deck.

Provided by Martha Stewart

1 (3-inch long) piece fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced (about 1/3 cup)
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup honey
4 cups freshly squeezed ruby-red grapefruit juice (about 5 grapefruits)
Ice cubes, for serving
1 can (12-ounce) club soda

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan, combine ginger, sugar, honey, and 1/4 cup water over medium heat, stirring until sugar is dissolved, about 2 minutes.
  • Place grapefruit juice in a pitcher. Strain ginger syrup through a fine-mesh sieve into pitcher. To serve, divide juice mixture among 6 glasses filled with ice, and top off with a splash of club soda.

Tips:

  • Select high-quality red wine: Choose a red wine that you enjoy drinking on its own, as the flavor of the wine will shine through in the spritzer. Look for a red wine with bright fruit flavors, such as cherry, raspberry, or blackberry.
  • Use fresh ginger: Fresh ginger adds a spicy, aromatic flavor to the spritzer. Peel and grate the ginger before using.
  • Adjust the sweetness to your taste: If you prefer a sweeter spritzer, add more honey or simple syrup. If you prefer a tarter spritzer, add less sweetener or omit it altogether.
  • Garnish with fresh fruit: Garnish the spritzer with fresh berries, citrus slices, or mint leaves for a refreshing and festive touch.
  • Serve chilled: The spritzer is best served chilled. You can chill the red wine and ginger ale in the refrigerator before making the spritzer, or you can serve the spritzer over ice.
