So summer is here, and there is always a dilemma of what to drink on a hot summer’s day. Yes, a cold lager is refreshing, but sometimes it’s nice to have something different, and lager is a bit much fattening liquid. Wine is perfect for a summer’s day. In this article, we will cover some great summer wines, and also give you a few ideas of how to serve it to make it extra special.

The first thing that comes to mind when talking about wines to drink in the summer is Sauvignon Blanc. This crisp, dry wine is perfect for summer drinking, just make sure you chill it well to get the optimum out of it. When looking for a Sauvignon Blanc, look for one that comes from New Zealand, as this white wine offers something a little more special. These wines are the best types of wine created from this grape, and the most applauded ones are the ones from the Cloudy Bay or Marlborough areas of New Zealand.

But what if you’re not too keen on dry white wine?

There are some really good German sweet white wines which, when chilled, are refreshing and add something completely different to the norm.

Also, a Portuguese friend of mine keeps her red wine in the fridge too. She doesn’t like white wine, and swears by a chilled red wine instead, which is great in the Algarve, where the temperatures get quite high.

For those of us not quite ready to chill our red wine, there is a middle ground. There are some spectacular rosé wines on the market. These are fantastic with picnics and BBQs, and also great to just sit and drink with friends. There is something about the fruitiness of a rosé that makes you think of the summers past and the great times that you’ve had.

But there are plenty of other ways to enjoy white wine too. There is the traditional spritzer or shorle, where a white wine is mixed with soda or lemonade (depending on whether you like things to be a bit sweeter or not), and served with ice. This is an excellent cooling drink.

There is also the Spanish favourite Sangria, where red wine is put into a jug with fruit, some liqueur and some fruit juice or lemonade. This is the staple drink on the Costa Brava, and is best if left in the fridge for some time, to let the flavours mix together to ensure the perfect summer cooler.

In Germany, they make something called the Bowle (This is German for punch). This again involves fresh fruit, often strawberries or raspberries, which are then mixed with sparkling wine. The result is a fizzy, fruity treat, which will cool you down nicely. If you are feeling particularly adventurous, you can add a splash of brandy to the mixture to give it some extra fizz.

So whatever style of drinking you have, there is a summer solution for wine which will suit you.

5 Best Jello Shots For Your Next Outdoor Party

Here are potentially the 5 best jello shots recipes and instructions on how to make your favorite jello shots. Jello shots can be used with most any flavors of jello and your favorite liquors.  Somethings to keep in mind - the higher the proof of the alcohol the more water will have to be added to make sure the jello shots set up when chilling.

General Directions For Making Jello Shots

Here are some rough numbers for volumes of alcohol in jello shots:

30-50 proof then use 11-13 ounces of alcohol and 3-5 ounces of water

80-100 proof the use 10-12 ounces of alcohol and 4-6 ounces of water

150-200 proof alcohol then use 4-6 ounces of alcohol and 10-12 ounces of water

Pour the jello mix in with the boiling water until the powder is dissolved, then add your favorite alocohol and water combination in with the mix to make your favorite jello shots.  Let the combination cool before pouring in to your jello shots cup.

Jello Shots can be poured in to small plastic cups or paper cups to set up, pour these, then chill in the refrigerator to set up.  Remember too much alcohol and not enough water will cause your jello shots not to set up.

Recipes for Jello Shots

Lemon Drop Jello Shots

6 ounces lemon jello - the larger box

16 ounces water for boiling

8 ounces cold water - to be mixed with vodka

8 ounces of your favorite vodkasuch as Absolut Citron

Daiquiri Jello Shots

6 ounces cherry jello - the larger box

16 ounces water for boiling

12 ounces cold water - to be mixed with alcohol

2 ounces triple sec

2 ounces dark rum

2 ounces light rum

Fuzzy Navel Jello Shots



6 ounces orange jello - the larger box

16 ounces water for boiling

6 ounces cold water - to be mixed with schnapps

6 ounces peach flavored schnapps

Margarita Jello Shots

6 ounces lime jello - the larger box

16 ounces water for boiling

6 ounces cold water - for mixing with tequila

8 ounces tequila

2 ounces of triple sec

Strawberry Jello Shots

6 ounces strawberry jello - the larger box

16 ounces water for boiling

6 ounces cold water to mix with vodka

10 ounces vodka

Hopefully these jello shots recipes will make your next outdoor party that much more fun!

Executive summary

More stable situation less impacted by lower consumer confidence

Alcoholic drinks recorded a more stable volume and value performance in comparison to previous years where steep falls in volume impacted the market. In 2008, value performance was influenced by a rise in prices that did not have a major impact on demand, as food and drinks do not command a significant share of total consumer expenditure. Dutch alcoholic drinks are generally cheaper than other European countries, despite the heavy tax weight levied. Categories such as beer saw renewed marketing promotions around the soccer European Cup championship whilst in spirits, falling volume sales in most subsectors saw some exceptions with a positive performance in vodka and rum - both popular among young Dutch consumers.

This was taken at the “House of Bols” museum and bar just opposite the Van Gogh museum in Amsterdam. For 10€ you get a tour of the museum (including its very interesting scent room), a custom cocktail, a genevers (gin) cocktail and five flavour shots. If you don’t drink, like myself, they’ll also make you up a virgin cocktail. The staff were very friendly and after you’ve gone through the musuem and its drinks (considering a cocktail alone will set you back 7-12€ in A’dam, Paris or Brussels, it’s a good price), there’s a half-decent gift-shop up-top.
