I love a delicious, cool and refreshing summer time cocktail. Summer is the perfect time to use seasonal fruits to create fun, outdoor sippers. This light melon cocktail is enhanced by the taste of sweet, seasonal melons and elderflower cordial.

Robert Mondavi Woodbridge Sweet Wines is a perfect wine to use for melon cocktails, especially in the summer time. It is a blend of Gewurztraminer, Chardonnay, Viognier and Verdehlo and has nice apple and citrus notes. This sweet wine is great to sip on its own or works nicely for sangria or a wine cocktail.
