A refreshing Spanish drink that translates to "red wine of summer"
Tinto de Verano is made by mixing red wine with soda, typically lemon-lime soda or a citrus-flavored soda like Sprite or 7UP, and sometimes a splash of vermouth or other spirits. It's like sangria but simpler and lighter, that's why it's so popular for hot summer days in Spain. The exact recipe can vary depending on personal preferences and regional variations.
