“This is a light and refreshing cooler that has enough oomph with the vodka but is still sessional,” says Auriela Nossa, a bartender, and the brand manager for The 86 Co. “The wine I use is from our family friend Richard Betts, but this cocktail would be awesome with most rosés.” Try it out with various types of rosé and see what you like, and while you do, enjoy the nuances of fresh berry, basil, and lemon that help brighten this warm-weather sipper. Served in a tall glass filled with ice, the Provence Cooler can be sipped after a long day gardening, at your next soiree or anytime you want a refreshing but complex tipple.
