Bring back those carefree days.
Instead of the Boones Farm, try a almost white or pale yellow to moderate wine to conquer /complement the heat in the air and the food...

Champagne
Chardonnay
If you are adventurous go with the Champagne.
Why?
Bubbles in wine and champagne cam assist in smoothing the heat !!

Make tacos with this! Drink some Grenache
Start by accompanying a cod grilled and basted with a tangy sauce
