100 Mile Cocktails from North Florida's Ponte Vedra Inn & Club
Ponte Vedra Inn & Club treats guests to a taste of North Florida with its new 100 Mile cocktails curated with ingredients sourced from within 100 miles of the AAA Five Diamond resort. The Vintners Red wine from St. Augustine’s San Sebastian Winery is the main component in the Red Sangria cocktail, which expresses intense fruit flavor through a strategic combination of Native Muscadine grapes, blueberry syrup and fresh fruit. A lighter cocktail, the Mint Hound combines Florida Cane Vodka from St. Augustine Distillery Co., local Mandarin Florida ruby red grapefruit juice and fresh mint leaves for an invigorating and flavorful cocktail. Available through the month of February, the Red Sangria and Mint Hound are able to be enjoyed at the resort’s Golf Club Dining Room and recently renovated Tavern. For those unable to enjoy Ponte Vedra Inn & Club’s newly renovated suites, 30,000 sq. ft. Spa, wide beaches or gourmet offerings, the Red Sangria and Mint Hound can be recreated at home with the following recipes.
