Refreshing Summer Cocktail Hour

Refreshing aperitifs on warm summer days need not be complicated.  Just a handful of really good ingredients can do the trick.

Here Opus extra virgin olive oil is drizzled on chilled watermelon and creamy feta pieces, arranged in a chic checkerboard pattern, pleasing to the eye and toped with cooling fresh mint.  Easy to pick up with a small skewer and you've got a taste of carefree summer living and Mediterranean magic.

Pair it with an iced, bubbly cocktail, garnished with limes and fresh mint or any other yummy tidbits you fancy.
