Tinto de Verano originates from Spain, where it’s very popular, especially in the summer. It’s often served as an alternative to sangria. While sangria is often a party in a glass with many ingredients, Tinto de Verano is simpler. It only requires two main ingredients: Spanish red wine and a fresh, sweet, fizzy drink .
In Spain, the La Casera brand is commonly used, a smooth lemon-lime soda that pairs perfectly with red wine. Unfortunately, this brand is hard to find in the Netherlands. Luckily, there are plenty of good-quality alternatives readily available at your local supermarket. Think, for example, of Fanta Lemon, Sprite, or even store-brand lemon-lime soda. These drinks offer a similar refreshing flavor that complements the wine beautifully.
