The Honey-Cup Cocktail

Leopard’s Leap is introducing an exciting new addition to its popular range of innovative wine cocktails – the Leopard’s Leap Honey-Cup!

And while the name might suggest sweetness, the combination of ginger-ale and sleek slices of citrus smoothly cuts through the warm honey, leaving its comforting nuances without any cloying sweetness. Forming the basis of this refreshing drink and ensuring elegance and finesse, is the 2015 Leopard’s Leap Chenin Blanc.

The Leopard’s Leap Honey-Cup is zesty and zippy and perfect for a lazy brunch, sultry sunset or just for celebrating spring!

Enjoy one of these at Leopard’s Leap Family Vineyards or get a bottle of the 2015 Leopard’s Leap Chenin Blanc from your closest supermarket and make your own at home!
