Cocktails with White port

White port is a fortified wine from white grapes, from Portugal’s Douro Valley.

ABV18%

Substitutes for White port

Another white port

Works perfectly, just check the style first. Bottles range from bone dry to intensely sweet.

Lillet Blanc

A solid stand-in. Swap it straight at the exact same measure.

Pineau des Charentes blanc

Another solid choice, though it runs noticeably sweeter.

Fino sherry

Bone dry with a salty, nutty edge. It leaves the glass drier, so stir in about half a barspoon of sugar syrup per 40 ml of sherry.

Sweet white wine

A Sauternes only matches a sweet port. It sits at a lower ABV, leaving you with a lighter drink.

On the label

“white port”
Usually aged only briefly in wood, so it stays pale. Sweetness varies widely between houses: look for "dry" or "extra dry" on the label, not at the color.

Description

It is made like red port: grape spirit stops the fermentation, so unfermented sugar stays and the strength rises at once. Sweetness is what varies most between bottles, and it decides how a drink built on it tastes.

Storage

Once opened, keep it in the fridge and finish it within weeks; the freshness fades after that.
