No gathering on a warm summer day is complete without an array of food and chilled refreshments. This summer, add some fun to the beverage cart with fresh, fruity spritzers that make any occasion feel like a beach getaway.
A refreshingly vibrant, light-bodied option, Barefoot Refresh Spritzers are perfect served alone or blended with seasonal ingredients for flavorful cocktails that guests will be thrilled to sip and savor. These flavorful beverages, available in Crisp White and Summer Red flavors, add a signature spritz to any get-together. Better yet, for those who enjoy wine in the sunshine, these spritzers are now available in single-serve cans that can be enjoyed in many of the places where wine glasses and bottles aren’t always welcome, such as pools, beaches and parks.
In fact, cans are a growing trend among many summertime beverages, which makes it easier than ever before to enjoy a refreshing drink when and where you want one. After all, sleek, light-weight single-serve cans are easy to carry and pack in coolers, beach bags and tubs of ice.
For larger summer bashes, prepare pitchers filled with spritzer cocktails and punches ahead of time or encourage guests to get creative by concocting their own blends. Just set out a selection of mixers, along with fresh fruits and herbs, such as mint leaves, to mix things up.
