How about making cocktail or icy cool drinks?

Can cook coq au vin. Basically it's chicken stew in white wine. My family favourite.

Dont have to use a a lot - maybe 3/4 - 1 cup (I use the ikea kids cup for measure) of white wine. Sometimes I cook the chicken over the stove. Other times, I roast the chicken in white wine in the oven.

1/2 a bottle can go a long way.

If your kids love pasta, can use white wine to cook :


spaghetti with bacon and basil
spaghetti carbonara
alfredo sauce

I love using white wine for cooking. It’s so versatile!!

Red wine goes best with bolognese sauce. Makes the flavour more intense.

This is timely.

Plan to cook spaghetti with salmon+ham for a dinner this week.
