You've got the grill going. You have prepped the salads and made sure to load up on ice.

Now what?

Wine-A-Rita's what!

These intriguing drinks was invented by 2 friends and business partners, Donna & Judy.

And just think, isn't a frozen wine drink the perfect thing for your dinner party, weekend barbecue and this insane hot weather?

I mean, you're going to have a glass or two of wine anyway, so why not add a little excitement to it!

What's great about them is not only are they delicious, but they are so simple to make - just add wine, mix, ice and blend. Done!

Donna and Judy created Wine Glacé first (it won "best new drink" award in 2005 at the National Gourmet Show), and then the Peach Bellini, CosmoRita and Senorita were added to the line.

Wine Glacé is a great way to introduce yourself to the line and watch out - you might not wine without it after this! You can blend it with either red or white wine, which is nice, or you can mix it with fruit juice for a non-alcoholic version. And the fancy cloth bag it comes in is made by adults who have developmental disabilities. Gotta love that!

Peach Bellini is a great addition to your dinner party - just think how it will liven up your grilled pork chops or your cheese platter. You can use white wine, sparkling wine, Proscecco or Champagne for a refreshing, fruity cocktail. And for one without alcohol, go ahead and mix it with ginger ale - it's just as peachy!

For your girlfriend get togethers, you'll want to have CosmoRita on hand. Use white wine (Donna & Judy recommend Pinot Grigio and Sauvignon Blanc) or vodka and whip up an original version of this classic . Anyone can do a Cosmo, but you'll be the only one doing CosmoRitas.

As much as I love the taste of margaritas, after a big glass and a half, I feel full. That's why I love the lighter-tasting Senorita (plus it's made of two of your favourite drinks - margaritas and wine). It's the perfect combination.

I love the frothy, icy goodness of each of these. We've still got a long summer ahead of us - wouldn't you like to be drinking something cold and original?
