I am really surprised by the taste of the Coconut Frascati. It does not have the strong sweet overpowering coconut flavor that I was expecting. Rather it is a very light taste that you sense more after swallowing the wine. The Frascati half of this seems to be a very light refreshing white wine, as refreshing as pineapple. When mixed with the coconut, I cannot help but think of this drink as a Pina Colada lite. It probably has a similar ABV (w/ 4 lbs of sugar added to the primary) but maybe not the viscosity and perhaps not the calorie content (I can only hope). Still not sure how I like it best. Cold, for sure. Ice or no ice, not sure yet. I just know that I like it cold and without much ice melt dilution. Much nicer on a hot summer afternoon than one of my heavy reds and even my IM Blueberry Pinot Noir. It is a bit more refreshing (and less acidic) than my Skeeter Pee and my Twisted Mist Hard Lemonade.
Did I mention that I like this? Thank you Sammy for the suggestion.
