    Title: Tinto De Verano
    Categories: Beverages, Wine, Citrus
    Yield: 1 servings

    MMMMM-------------------LEMON-LIME SYRUP (OPT------------------------
    Peel of 1 lemon
    Peel of 1 lime
    3/4 c Granulated sugar
    pn Fine sea salt
    3/4 c (6 ouz) fresh lemon juice

    MMMMM---------------------------DRINK--------------------------------
    Ice
    2 oz Dry red wine
    1/4 oz Sweet vermouth (opt)
    4 oz Lemon-lime soda
    ==OR=+
    1/4 oz Lemon-Lime Simple Syrup
    +=PLUS=+
    2 oz (to 4 oz) soda water
    Lemon wheel; garnish

    If making the lemon-lime syrup, place the citrus peels
    in a small saucepan, and add the sugar and salt. Use a
    muddler or the end of a rolling pin to break down the
    mixture, working the sugar mixture into the peels until
    they start to express their oils. Add the lemon juice
    and stir to combine. Heat over low, stirring frequently,
    just until the sugar dissolves. Immediately remove the
    pan from the heat and set aside to steep for 1 to 2
    hours. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing on the
    solids. (You should have about 1 cup syrup. The syrup
    can be stored, in an airtight container in the
    refrigerator, for up to 3 weeks.)

    In an ice-filled cocktail shaker, combine the wine,
    vermouth and syrup, if using. Cover and shake until
    cold, then strain into an ice-filled highball or wine
    glass. Top with soda (or soda water), and mix gently to
    combine. Garnish with the lemon wheel and serve.
