NATIONAL DRINK WINE DAY 
While
February 18th is observed annually as National Drink Wine Day, it would
be a shame to celebrate only one day a year. Perhaps this day is just a
reminder to drink wine.
National Drink Wine Day
Wine does have its benefits after all. Moderate drinkers of wine have lower risks of liver disease, type II diabetes, certain kinds of cancers, heart attack, and stroke. It also can reduce the bad cholesterol (LDL) and increase the good (HDL).
Drinking wine includes other benefits as well. When paired with the right meal, it enhances the flavors of spices, fruits, and sauces. A glass of wine helps relax us. Learning about wine keeps our minds sharp, too. Since the fruits, regions, and the making of wine have such a complex story, those who delve into find themselves traveling to learn more.

ReplyDeleteThe strongest drink I have is my 2 cups of coffee in the morning. The rest of the time it's water. I do have a caffeine free diet Pepsi after mowing in the summer and that would be soooo very welcome about now. Have I told you how very tired I am of winter? Probably at least once a day! 🥶
DeleteI do love me some Costco cheap Sangria wine. My dad had a huge wine collection and cook with those because they're dry wine and I'm not a fan of those, but great for cooking
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful day! (((BIG HUGS)))
There's a chicken recipe in my collection that calls for white wine. It's a good dish. Wine was the preferred drink of DH. Happy Wednesday!
