Frosé

Turn your favorite pink wine into the frozen cocktail of the summer—this frosé is fruity, frosty, and goes down way too easy.
Okay, summer cocktail lovers—let’s talk frozen rosé, aka frosé! I’ve sipped this refreshing pink drink in all kinds of places: a trendy rooftop pool bar in Austin where my son goes to college, a charming wine bar in Key West on a girls’ trip, and of course, right in my own backyard.
The ingredients vary a bit from place to place, but the basics stay the same: rosé wine, vodka, a splash of something like peach schnapps or Grand Marnier, and frozen fruit. Add a little sugar, a squeeze of lemon juice, and some ice, and you’ve got yourself a grown-up slushie that’s hard not to love.
“This is amazing, super delish and easy to throw together, total crowd pleaser!”
What You’ll Need To Make Frosé
While most frosé recipes call for frozen strawberries, I prefer using frozen peaches and cherries. Peaches add velvety sweetness, cherries bring a little tartness and a gorgeous pink hue—and since both are seedless, there’s no need to strain. You can also find them pre-frozen at just about any supermarket, so prep is a breeze.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Add the vodka, orange liqueur, lemon juice, and sugar to a high-powered blender. Cover and purée for 15 seconds to dissolve the sugar.
Add the peaches, cherries, rosé, and 2 cups of the ice.
Cover and purée until smooth. Taste and add more sugar or alcohol if desired and test the consistency. If you would like it slushier, add the remaining ice and blend again. If you would like it thinner, add a bit more rosé.
Pour the frosé into glasses and serve immediately. Frosé is best made right before serving but, due to the alcohol content, it won’t completely solidify in the freezer. If you have any left over, feel free to pop it in the freezer. Before serving, let it thaw briefly, give it another whirl in the blender, and you’re all set to enjoy.

This was a big hit at our 4th of July bbq! Someone described it as slushy sangria. Super tasty, a tad boozy, and very cold. Would make double next time!
