But this wine has been relegated to after-dinner fireside winter drinks for too long. <strong>Port can be enjoyed any time of the year<\/strong> if you know how to serve it (such as in port cocktails!) and when to drink it\u2014even during the hottest days of summer.<\/p>\n<h2>How to Enjoy Port in the Summer<\/h2>\n<h3>Pop Open Canned Port Cocktails<\/h3>\n<p>The Portuguese have been enjoying the simple Port and Tonic, or Porto Tonico, for decades, and it\u2019s time we joined in. The easiest way to taste the tradition is with a ready-made canned cocktail\u2014and not one of those artificially-flavored, sticky-sweet excuses of a drink! Grab the <a href=\"https:\/\/wine365.com\/stage\/best-canned-cocktails-port\/\">world\u2019s first canned Port cocktail<\/a>: Taylor Fladgate\u2019s <strong>Croft Pink &amp; Tonic<\/strong>\u2014fruity and subtly sweet\u2014or <strong>Chip Dry &amp; Tonic<\/strong>\u2014a riff on the G&amp;T. The winery created their very own tonic, which contains less sugar than a traditional tonic, in order to craft the most perfectly balanced canned cocktail. And at 5.5% alcohol, they are dangerously easy to drink.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_17572\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-17572\" style=\"width: 850px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-17572\" src=\"https:\/\/wine365.com\/stage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Add-berries-to-your-Pink-Tonic-to-make-the-flavors-pop.jpg\" alt=\"Add berries to your Pink &amp; Tonic to make the flavors pop\" width=\"850\" height=\"567\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wine365.com\/stage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Add-berries-to-your-Pink-Tonic-to-make-the-flavors-pop.jpg 850w, https:\/\/wine365.com\/stage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Add-berries-to-your-Pink-Tonic-to-make-the-flavors-pop-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wine365.com\/stage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Add-berries-to-your-Pink-Tonic-to-make-the-flavors-pop-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/wine365.com\/stage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Add-berries-to-your-Pink-Tonic-to-make-the-flavors-pop-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wine365.com\/stage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Add-berries-to-your-Pink-Tonic-to-make-the-flavors-pop-175x117.jpg 175w, https:\/\/wine365.com\/stage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Add-berries-to-your-Pink-Tonic-to-make-the-flavors-pop-450x300.jpg 450w, https:\/\/wine365.com\/stage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Add-berries-to-your-Pink-Tonic-to-make-the-flavors-pop-270x180.jpg 270w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-17572\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Add berries to your Pink &amp; Tonic to make the flavors pop<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>Mix up Refreshing Port Cocktails<\/h3>\n<p>Or, make your own Port cocktail. Because Port has such pronounced, delicious flavors, it is hard to mess up a Port cocktail even if you\u2019re a total beginner. Here are options for those who haven\u2019t gone grocery shopping in weeks (let alone stocked a bar), and others for the budding mixologist:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/wine365.com\/stage\/summer-port-cocktails\/\">3 Perfectly Refreshing Port Cocktails for Summer<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/wine365.com\/stage\/pink-port-cocktails\/\">Port Can Be Playful, too: 4 Pink Port Cocktails<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Drink Your Port Well-Chilled in a Frosty Glass<\/h3>\n<p>One of my favorite ways to drink Port, any season, is chilled. Keep your bottle in the refrigerator, nestle your favorite Port glass in the freezer around the frozen peas and ice, and pour small amounts that won\u2019t lose their chill before you finish. The frosty glass technique is smart for the canned cocktails, too, and will really dress them up (though the cans themselves are pretty enough to serve!).<\/p>\n<h3>Try Dry Port<\/h3>\n<p>Have you tried dry Port yet? While normal Ruby or Tawny Port has a residual sugar content of 100-150 g\/l (or more), dry Port such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.taylor.pt\/us\/port-wine\/chip-dry\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Chip Dry<\/a>, pioneered by Taylor Fladgate in 1934, has a much lower content at just 24 g\/l. Pour it over ice and top with a sprig of mint, and you\u2019ve got the perfect dry Port bevvy.<\/p>\n<h3>Pair It with Dinner<\/h3>\n<p>In the summer, I often forgo dessert after a meal because heat and sweat already make me feel heavy. Instead of the traditional Port and dessert, pair your Port with dinner: <strong>LBV and Ruby Ports<\/strong> have tannins, acidity, and fruitiness, and when chilled, pair deliciously with lighter starters, salads, and fresh vegetables. The <strong>Chip Dry &amp; Tonic canned cocktail<\/strong> is excellent with olive tapenade, salty aged cheeses, or cute little cucumber and cream cheese sandwiches. And a <strong>Tawny<\/strong> doesn\u2019t have to be paired only with chocolate and caramel desserts\u2014try it out with BBQ! Classic barbeque sauce is made with sugar, which helps it play very nicely with the Tawny sweetness and caramelized notes.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_17569\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-17569\" style=\"width: 850px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-17569 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/wine365.com\/stage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Chip-Dry-Port-pairs-well-with-olive-tapenade-cheeses-and-starters.jpg\" alt=\"Chip Dry Port pairs well with olive tapenade, cheeses, and starters\" width=\"850\" height=\"520\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/wine365.com\/stage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Chip-Dry-Port-pairs-well-with-olive-tapenade-cheeses-and-starters.jpg 850w, https:\/\/wine365.com\/stage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Chip-Dry-Port-pairs-well-with-olive-tapenade-cheeses-and-starters-300x184.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wine365.com\/stage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Chip-Dry-Port-pairs-well-with-olive-tapenade-cheeses-and-starters-150x92.jpg 150w, https:\/\/wine365.com\/stage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Chip-Dry-Port-pairs-well-with-olive-tapenade-cheeses-and-starters-768x470.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wine365.com\/stage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Chip-Dry-Port-pairs-well-with-olive-tapenade-cheeses-and-starters-175x107.jpg 175w, https:\/\/wine365.com\/stage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Chip-Dry-Port-pairs-well-with-olive-tapenade-cheeses-and-starters-450x275.jpg 450w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 850px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 850\/520;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-17569\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Chip Dry Port pairs well with olive tapenade, cheeses, and starters.
