5 Butternut Pairings to Whip Up for Summer Pool Days
Refreshing and crisp, citrusy and smooth, you can’t go wrong with a bottle of Butternut Chardonnay or Sauvignon Blanc sitting poolside this year! These perfect summer refreshers are not only delicious, they’re also lower in calories than many of their fellow wines, making them the ideal choice for bathing suit weather.
And as with all Butternut wines, these poolside choices pair well with a slew of delicious treats, meals, and daytime snacks! So if you want to make your Butternut experience even better, invite your friends and add some of these tasty pairings to the mix.
Sangria Fruit Tray
This pairing choice goes directly with your wine! Set out a tray of fruit, a bucket of ice and some straws for mixing and spend the day trying out different Butternut Sangrias! You can’t go wrong with your choice of fruit, but our favorites to enjoy are summer peaches, nectarines, pineapple and oranges.
Chips & Dip
Winter months call for nachos, summer months call for chips and dip! Set out your favorite salsas, fresh guacamole and favorite chips and savor them all day long alongside your Butternut of choice.
Vegetable Tray
The refreshing nature of our summer wines make crisp, cool vegetables an incredible pairing choice for a poolside snack. Slice up some cucumbers, bell peppers and baby carrots and enjoy a guilt-free day out in the summer sun.
Thai Lettuce Wraps
Both our Chardonnay & Sauvignon Blanc are incredible pairings for one of the greatest cuisines out there – Thai food! Any spicy Thai dish is a perfect pairing, but nothing is better poolside than DIY Thai lettuce wraps. The mix of Thai heat with refreshing lettuce and vegetables will make your Butternut wine taste better than ever.
Chicken Kabobs
Fire up the grill and make some easy, delicious chicken kabobs to enjoy with your bottle of Butternut! Light enough to still enjoy the pool, filling enough to stay there all day, chicken kabobs are one of our favorite poolside pairings. Add some spicy heat, or keep it light and mild—either way, the chicken will make your wine shine!
No matter what you choose, a bottle of Butternut makes every pool day better! Enjoy the sun, the company, and any delicious food you add to the mix!
