Economical Frose Recipe
Frosé, a frozen cocktail made with rosé wine, has become a popular summer drink known for its refreshing taste and stunning appearance. This icy pink concoction offers a playful and sophisticated way to enjoy rosé wine, making it a favorite choice for summer entertaining and outdoor celebrations.
Equipment
- 1 Blender
- 1 Shaker
- 1 Glass
Ingredients
- 1 bottle 750ml rosé wine
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 cup frozen strawberries
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- Ice cubes
- Fresh strawberries for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is completely dissolved. Remove from heat and let the simple syrup cool to room temperature.
- Pour the entire bottle of rosé wine into a shallow baking dish or ice cube trays. Place in the freezer and freeze until almost solid, about 4-6 hours or overnight.
- Once the rosé is frozen, remove it from the freezer and let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly. In a blender, combine the frozen rosé, frozen strawberries, fresh lemon juice, and simple syrup. Blend until smooth and slushy.
- If the frosé is too thick, you can add a splash of water or additional rosé wine to achieve the desired consistency. If it's too thin, you can blend in more frozen strawberries or ice cubes.
- Pour the frosé into glasses and garnish with fresh strawberries, if desired. Serve immediately while cold and slushy.
Notes
- Frozen Fruit: While frozen strawberries are the traditional choice for frosé, you can experiment with other frozen fruits such as raspberries, peaches, or watermelon to create different flavor variations.
- Make-Ahead Option: You can prepare the frozen rosé in advance and keep it stored in the freezer until ready to blend. Simply blend with the other ingredients when ready to serve.
