When I was a bartender, I got to mix and create tons of fun and flavorful drinks for my customers. You can imagine that when I had people over, they expected me to mix them the same creative and tasty drinks. After I had my kids, I stopped drinking hard liquor and moved to beer and wine. There is nothing like an ice cold beer or sparkling wine on a warm day or at the end of a long work day. One of my favorite drinks is a good sangria, packed full of seasonal fruits. In recognition of October being Breast Cancer Awareness Month, I wanted to make a Sparkling Pink Pinot Sangria.
Imagine my excitement when I received a few bottles of Little Black Dress Wines, including their Divalicious Pink Pinot. This is the perfect wine for my Sparkling Pink Pinot Sangria. If you are a wine drinker, you are going to appreciate these tongue tingling and tantalizingly delicious wines. If you are not a wine drinker, you may just fall in love with the first sip!
You can choose from a wide variety of their yummy products including a Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Divalicious Pink Pinot, Divalicious Red, Merlot, Moscato, Pinot Grigio, and Pinot Noir. The Cabernet Sauvignon is rich and had these subtle undertones that make it the perfect pairing with my meatball casserole (recipe coming soon!) The company got their name from the iconic little black dress, which is known to be simply timeliness, playful yet elegant and ready for anything at a moment’s notice.
The Little Black Dress wines are made from select grapes from California, and are created by a very talented female winemaker. When I learned that, it made me love the Little Black Dress Wines even more! Through the end of October, you can create your own Little Black Dress Wines PINK DRINK recipe. You may even have your recipe shared on the Little Black Dress Wines’ social media channels including Facebook, Instagram and Twitter using #LBDPinkDrink.

I don’t drink very often, but I love a good cocktail or sangria from time to time. This looks really refreshing.
There’s nothing better than a nice sangria. I can’t wait to give this a try. It certainly looks delicious.
Oh my! I really want to make a few of these. That Little Black Dress wine sounds perfect!

I’m not a big drinker but that looks delicious! So fruity and refreshing!
Yummy. Looks like a good treat. I can go for one. It has been a long work day today.
Looks so delicious cocktail. Perfect for our girls night. Looking forward to try this.
That looks so fun and fresh. I love trying new drinks.
I don’t drink alcohol but would love to have one of these with sparkling cider.
I don’t think I’ve had a pinot sangria. This looks delicious and I love the added fresh fruit.
These looks so good and I know would be a big hit at a party. The fresh fruit added just makes it all so appealing and festive for a party. I am going to make some of these.
I’m a sucker for a great glass of wine. I am a Pink Pinot fan myself. I could see myself having this drink with a few friends around the fire before the snow starts to come down.
I seldom drink alcoholic beverages, but it wouldn’t hurt to try this. This sangria looks delicious.
That looks so refreshing and so delicious! I would love to have a cup right about now to enjoy!
It really does look refreshing and delicious! A great recipe for our next girls night in!
This sangria looks delicious. I love enjoying a drink like this from time to time.
I am saving this recipe. It looks so refreshing! I would serve this when we have guests in the house. I can just imagine the compliments I will be getting. 🙂
Perfect cocktail for a small dinner party. Love the refreshing fruity zing you added!
I’ll take a pitcher, please!
Ohlalal this is my kind of drink, sparkling and fruity ! Sign me up!
YUM! I love sangria! Is 10AM on Sunday too early? HA!
They certainly look great – and with all that fruit surely they count as healthy?
Now that looks refreshing. Love all the fresh fruit. Is it 5 o’clock yet!
I’d love little more than to be sitting down with one of these in my hands – looks amazing!
This is such a pretty drink! Went I became a mom, I became more of a wine drinker too. A girl has got to calm down once she has kids, but not too much. 😉 I’d love to sip on this after getting the kiddo tucked into bed!
I love sangria, this looks so delicious and refreshing, great color too!
This does sound so good. With your background as a bartender, you know how to put together some good flavor combinations. I’d love to try this!
