Celebrate Summer Solstice with Spodee and Art in the Age Cocktails
The summer solstice is Saturday, June 21, at 6:51 AM, and while that may be a little early for a drink, we’ve got some solstice sips that will kick start your first day of summer brunch.
Up first, Spodee sangrias and mojitos you can mix up at home. Spodee Wine recently released Spodee White, a blended white wine with notes of pineapple, amaretto, and toasted coconut. Like Spodee Red, it too packs a punch thanks to a little moonshine. This delicious hooch mixture makes a great mojito, and Spodee Red lends itself to a sexy sangria. Check out the recipes below!
If you’re looking to enjoy some unique brunch cocktails this summer, you might want to head to Harvest Bar and Grill in West Philly where they’re shaking up refreshing cocktails featuring Art in the Age spirits. Every weekend throughout the summer you can enjoy $8 brunch cocktails between 11 AM and 3 PM. Choose from RHUBARB with muddled berries, lemon simple syrup, and club soda, SAGE with muddled mint, lime, sugar, and sparkling rose, or RHUBARB with orange, cranberry, and prosecco.
Happy sipping!
