Is there anything more summer than Rosé and Sangria? How about combining the two. This summer cocktail recipe is about as sunny as things get. And if you need a reason to celebrate, we’ve got a few.

For starters, the Fourth of July is just a few days away. Even if you’re not big on the holiday, it falls on a summer weekend so that’s kinda nice. Bastille Day is coming up, if that’s more your speed. And the long mild days are always worth raising a glass to, in our opinion.
