What is in Rose Lemonade
Rose Wine – So for this drink I used Rose, you can use any brand you would like. One big thing I do recommend is make sure your Rose is nice and chilled before you pour it into the cocktail. You will find this step will help enhance the mixed drink tremendously.
Water – Sparkling water or tonic are what you will use to add a “bubble” effect to the drink. Now if you are not big on sparkling water, you could always add in ginger ale or a lemon lime soda in replace.
Lemonade – Frozen pink lemonade concentrate is what I reached for. You can use other flavors like raspberry lemonade or even a plain lemonade. Feel free to play around with the flavor to create the perfect flavored drink for you.
Garnish – This is totally optional, but you might like to garnish with sliced lemons, raspberries or even strawberries. Have fun in creating the perfect warm weather drink.

Possible Substitutions/Additions

- Use lemon lime soda or ginger ale in replace of sparkling water.
- For a kid-friendly drink use juice to replace. Cranberry, strawberry, or other flavored juice.
- Add in frozen fruit to garnish the glass. But also as it melts it will enhance the flavor of the drink.
- Use a different type of wine if you would like.
Storing Tips
Refrigerator
This is a drink that should be made right before being served. The reason is the sparkling water will go flat pretty quickly. So whip up the cocktail and serve.
If you happen to have leftovers, you can store in the fridge in a sealed pitcher. Then right before serving, stir well and then top off your glass with more sparkling water.

Let me share a few a few of my favorite appetizers that compliment this cocktail in a big way. Consider whipping up this pico de gallo and serve with salty chips. It is a spicy appetizer that you will want to cool down with a cocktail. Or consider this watermelon bites made with feta cheese. Such a refreshing option.
