Laurentide Winery's Ruby Sipper
There's something about a bubbly cocktail on a hot summer day that just feels right, and Laurentide Winery’s signature Ruby Sipper wine cocktail ($8) fits the bill. Inspired by the fruity fun of warm-weather staples, like mimosas and slushies, this heat-beating quaff is low ABV and incorporates just three craft ingredients: the winery’s estate-grown Sauvignon Blanc 2021 (which features notes of punchy herbs, a citrusy palette, and mineral-driven backbone), elderflower-infused tonic water, and a splash of ruby grapefruit simple syrup. It’s crisp, refreshing, and delightfully pink, and if you click your heels together three times (and add it to your tab), a second round might just appear! Get fizzy with one at Laurentide Winery, 56 French St. in Lake Leelanau. To browse their full bottle selection, check out laurentidewinery.com.
