This is a great snack for anytime. Take it on a picnic. Serve it at lunch. Or serve it between heavy courses at dinner. It’s a very versatile recipe. If you want to add some additional flair, trying adding some strawberries and maybe a pinch of sugar. You don’t want to add too much sugar, just enough so that you know it’s there but no so much that it’s overpowering anything. The strawberry will also complement the rosé’s flavors. Wine Pairing Suggestions Provencal rosé rosé of Pinot Noir sparkling Chiaretto
