Helena’s Choice: The Pinot-Colada
The Pinot-Colada
Ingredients
250ml Barefoot Pinot Grigio
40ml Coconut rum (or rum liqueur)
100ml Pineapple juice
Pineapple slices to garnish
Large wine glass
Nothing says summer more to me than a kiss of rum in a long drink and this Pinot-Colada recipe (see what we did there) brings together the refreshing, pear and baked apple notes of Pinot Grigio with tropical pineapple and rum vibes. It’s a fiesta in a glass! Method: Half fill a cocktail shaker with ice and add all the liquid ingredients together for a long, wet shake. Next, pour everything into the glass, including the ice. Garnish with a slice of pineapple and a stripey straw. Cheers! Cocktail umbrella optional.
Aidy’s Choice: The Barefoot Paloma
The Barefoot Paloma
Ingredients
90ml Barefoot Sauvignon Blanc
75ml Fresh grapefruit juice or Grapefruit soda
15ml Fresh lime juice
Sugar syrup to taste
Salt & lime wedge (optional)
Highball glass
You know how much I love a Paloma and this wine-based version has knocked my socks off. Traditionally made with Tequila, this version replaces that tang of Mexico’s iconic spirit with the grassy, citrus vibes of Barefoot Sauvignon Blanc with the grapefruit juice. Perfect for those less keen on spirits but searching for a long cocktail. Method: Cut a lime and rub the juice around the rim of the glass. Next, fill it to the top with ice, then pour in the Sauvignon Blanc, grapefruit juice, lime juice and sugar syrup. Stir well, then garnish with a lime wedge. Ta-da! A great alternative for Cinco de Mayo or any time of the year.
Colin’s Choice: Summer Sangria
Summer Sangria
Ingredients
1 x 750ml Bottle of chilled Barefoot Jammy Red
225ml Pomegranate juice
60ml White Rum
50g Pomegranate seeds
1 x Sliced apple

Jugs
There’s not much more fun than a jug of sangria on a hot day at a party and this version is sensational in the sunshine, combing real, fresh fruit and spices with one of Barefoot’s unashamedly bold and beautiful, soft and fruity reds. Simply double up the recipe to batch this sangria by the jug! Method: Ridiculously quick and simple, pour the whole bottle of chilled Barefoot Jammy Red wine into the jug along with the rum and pomegranate juice and stir. Next, throw in the sliced fruit and seeds before stirring again. Pour into a highball or wine glass and enjoy!
