There’s no getting around the fact that white peaches and fizzy wine are a dainty and feminine combination for a summer cocktail. But be sure to serve this sangría over plenty of ice: It may look delicate but it can pack a punch.

- 1 lemon, cut into half wheels, plus more for garnish (optional)
- Ice, for serving
INSTRUCTIONS

Stop being so offended. There are drinks that are considered girly drinks and drinks that are considered more manly. Scotch on the rocks is considered a manly drink while drinks that are sweet and fruity are considered more feminine. I personally like the more feminine drinks even though I'm a male.
Seriously, what is with all the crap about "feminine" cocktails? Why is CHOW trying to offend their female readership? What exactly makes a manly cocktail: is it the color or the ingredients, because I need to know so I can segregate my bar.
