Duchess recipe
Posted 2 years, 4 months ago at 5:08 am. 0 comments
There are many different alcoholic drinks available in the shops that it is not easy to know what to choose. One of the best ways to know which the best value for money wines are is to find reviews. That means you will have some knowledge of the type of wine it is as well as the quality of the wine. Reviews are really one of the best way of discovering delicious wines.
I did often drink cocktails and have a great Duchess recipe which I used to make. Even the most elaborate cocktails are actually easy to make. For example, the Duchess recipe includes only these ingredients:
1 1/2 oz anis liqueur
1/2 oz sweet vermouth
1/2 oz dry vermouth
Cocktails are fun to have at a party or at a hip bar but they sure are expensive! Even during happy hour, you can often break the budget by having a few cocktails. So now, more often than not I will stick to red wine or champagne. I have learnt which are the best organic wines available and believe that drinking wine over cocktails will mean I get a delicious drink which is most likely much healthier and with fewer calories.
Whenever I have a choice I prefer to order organic wines or no added preservative wine. I adore French wines but am glad to try anything. I have even tried wines from Italy before and they have been some of the best wines I have ever had. It is not necessarily a good idea to judge a wine based on the location where it is grown, you can be amazed at the quality of wines grown in regions not known for wine production.
There are many places where you can find wine reviews to help you make a reliable choice in wine. Whether you prefer white or sparkling wine, you can find recent reviews online. I tend to read wine social media sites because you can then get immediate comments on the wine you are thinking of buying.
If you are thinking of trying organic wines then check out Treehugger for information on how buying organic wine is less damaging for the environment. Wikipedia also has some great articles on organic farming and organic food and wine.
