Beat The Summer Heat With These Aam Panna Sangria & Spritzer Recipes
WHEN the sun decides to turn up the heat and you're lounging in your garden, parched and dreaming of a breeze, there's no better call to the bar than the prospect of whipping up an Aam Panna Sangria or Spritzer. These drinks will not only refresh you but they will also deliver a potent dose of summer breeze in a glass. All this with a cheeky twist of nostalgia thanks to the Aam Panna, that beloved Indian green mango cooler. So, let's ditch the standard fare and infuse a bit of desi summer soul into our sangrias and spritzers, shall we?
Kicking Off with Aam Panna Sangria
Picture this: Spain and India decide to throw a joint bash in your pitcher. That's the vibe we're going for with the Aam Panna Sangria. Grab a pitcher that's seen some things and pour in about 120 ml of a zesty white wine—something that dances on your tongue like a Sauvignon Blanc. Now, splash in around 150 ml of Aam Panna. This isn't just adding flavour; it's adding memories of summer holidays and mango-stained smiles.
Then, we’re throwing in the fruit salad—apples, oranges, and a handful of grapes. Think of them as the party guests mingling and absorbing all that boozy goodness. But here’s the twist: sneak in about 30 ml of Smirnoff Vodka. It’s the plus-one that spikes the fun. Stir this concoction like you’re brewing a potion, let it chill for a bit, and serve. What you’ve got is a rule-breaking, globe-trotting sangria that'll make your next barbecue the talk of the town.
Next Up: Aam Panna Spritzer
Now, for those days when life demands a bit of sparkle, the Aam Panna Spritzer steps in. This is less about complexity and more about hitting that 'refresh' button on a summer afternoon. In a glass, mix 45 ml of vodka, sticking with Smirnoff to keep things smooth. Then top it up with about 75 ml of Aam Panna for that sweet-and-sour kick that reminds you of hot afternoons spent in your grandmother’s backyard.

Aam Panna Cucumber Spritzer
For this variation of the Aam Panna Spritzer, start with pouring in about 45 ml of Ketel One Vodka. Now, for the twist that turns this from a simple spritzer into a conversation starter: add around 75 ml of chilled Aam Panna. Now, thinly slice some cucumber and drop it into the mix. Top the concoction off with sparkling water and give it a gentle stir. garnish with a cucumber ribbon or a sprig of mint.
Mixing up these Aam Panna concoctions is playing bartender but also about experimenting with what’s in your kitchen and turning it into something downright memorable.
