Orange-Rosemary Wine Cooler

by

I have been drinking many one of these Orange-Rosemary Wine Coolers this week. I got the idea from a hotel Matt and I stayed in Seattle and I’ve been hooked ever since. There’s nothing like a rosemary and orange-flavored adult beverage filled with white wine and vodka. Perfect for summer. Perfect for a stressful day.

    Never would have thought of this combo in a drink form but this sounds totally refreshing!I’ll have to try it once this human parasite inside of me comes out. It will help me relax for sure!
