@Levenrack do you still drink mead? I know of other equivalents. Perhaps too strong though.

@DeWayfarer Oh no, it's not that. I joined the sobriety club a little over a year ago now.
And don't worry about talking about it. I'm good. 👍 😌

@Levenrack understand now. 👍🏻

@Elessar If you have room temperature 35°C, you shouldn't have any wine at all. 😆

@CrazyMusicLover *sad Po' Valley noises*

@CrazyMusicLover Champagne is traditionally a blend of white (Chardonnay) and black (Pinot Noir) grapes, so perhaps an exception to the rule 🍇

@DrWatson yes

@BloviatingBuffoon

That stuff is pretty good on a cold winter night.

@DrWatson there’s also a non alcoholic version of it. In some christmas markets.. I remember when I was pregnant ( or thinking i was) , i refrained from drinking it and they offered me a non alcoholic one lol

@eyeno Now that is what I call a big wine!

@Soossie Perfect!

@BlobbyMcBlobface

Thank you ..

@jackieash She is clearly drinking it too slowly..😷

@DrWatson That is so cool ! One of my friends used to tease us about putting an ice cube in wine—until someone brought boxed wine to a get-together. "That’s the kind of wine that deserves ice,"
she told us. 😅

I have never tried stevia.

I once searched Google for sucralose (Splenda) soda, and got a Walmart ad for Zevia.

I was all excited until I learned it is sweetened with stevia. Google search failed me.

I suppose I could at least try it, though.

@DrWatson

In general, I think most wine is too dry and bitter. Ice helps thin it in addition to making it cold. I prefer lighter, sweeter, and more fruity wine. The Olive Garden had a cheap red one, Roscato Rosso Dolce, that I liked. Nice and gentle, and sweet.

(Sorry for the low quality image, but all the high quality ones won't display here!)

Sometimes when I had a little left and an empty glass of water with leftover ice in it, I would pour the wine on the ice and slurp it with a straw. 😋

@onrealityofdreams I see. 🧐

@bijouxbroussard Cheers! 🍷
