The Finnely recipe
Posted 2 years, 6 months ago at 8:17 am. 0 comments
There are plenty of different beverages available in the shops that it is confusing to know what to get. One of the best ways to discover which the best quality wines are is to read reviews. At least that way you will have some idea of the type of wine it is as well as the quality of the wine. Others opinions are really a great way of discovering excellent wines.
I used to often drink cocktails and have a tasty The Finnely recipe which I used to make up. Even the most seemingly difficult cocktails are actually easy to make. For instance, the The Finnely recipe includes these ingredients:
1 1/2 oz light rum
2 oz dark rum
1 oz pineapple juice
1 oz grapefruit juice
2 oz orange juice
Cocktails are fun to have at a party or at a hip bar but they sure are expensive! Even during discount times, you can often break your budget by having some cocktails. So these days, more often than not I will stick to white wine or champagne. I have educated myself on the best organic wines available and accept that drinking wine over cocktails means I get a delicious drink which is probably better for me and with fewer calories.
Whenever I have a choice I prefer to drink Australian organic wine or low sulphate wine. I adore American wines but am willing to try anything. I have also tried wines from South Africa before and they have been some of the best wines I have ever had. It is not often a good idea to judge a wine based on the location where it is made, you can be surprised at the quality of wines made in areas not known for wine production.
There are many sites where you can find wine information to allow you to make a reliable choice in wine. Whether you prefer rose or sparkling wine, you can find recent reviews online. I like to read wine forums because you can then get immediate opinions on the wine you are contemplating buying.
If you are thinking of trying organic wines then see Treehugger for details on how buying organic food is less damaging for the environment. Wikipedia also has some great articles on organic growing and organic food and wine.
