Drink

Front Porch Swing

The Front Porch Swing is a summer refresher with its origins in Spanish sangria. Wine is mixed with something stronger, and a fruit salad is added. This long, cold drink was invented in some time after 2003 by H Joseph Ehrmann of Elixir in San Francisco, and leans on white wine rather than red as the base.

Elixir can be found at 3200 16th St., San Francisco, CA 94103, USA
