Note

For a larger batch, combine 750 ml of wine with 2 liters of lemon-lime soft drink to make approximately 8 servings.

Tip: Use a cheap wine with lots of berry or fruit flavor for the best results, as the subtle nuances of expensive wines are often masked by the soda.

This recipe makes wine coolers very similar to the ones you buy in stores, but with fresher ingredients.
