A couple of weeks ago while we were in California visiting several different wine regions, we stopped by the Old Sugar Mill close to Sacramento. One of the wineries we visited was Rendez-vous Winery. While visiting Rendez-vous in the renovated brick sugar mill building we picked up several recipe ideas with permission to post. Below are three cocktail recipes. The first recipe uses a bottle of Champagne or Prosseco.
Enjoy!
