It’s the perfect spring and summer cocktail! Bright, tart, and the equivalent of a grown up slushie! SIGN. ME. UP.

If you’re hosting a party or grilling out, this drink is very fun to serve when you have company over - it’s easy to make on your end, and looks impressive to guests!

Raspberry Lemon Frosé

Serves 4

Ingredients

1 bottle rosé wine

1 medium lemon, juiced

1 cup frozen raspberries (we used golden raspberries we froze ourselves, but red raspberries work also)

⅓ cup vodka

*option to add simple syrup. This is a very tart drink, so if you like some sweetness, add simple syrup to taste.

Instructions

Do ahead: fill an ice cube tray with the rosé (there will still be most of the bottle leftover), and place in freezer.

Once rosé is frozen, place rosé ice cubes into a blender, along with the lemon juice, frozen raspberries, vodka, and a cup of the remaining rosé.

Blend until smooth, and then strain with a mesh strainer to remove the seeds from the raspberries.

Pour into a glass and enjoy! And if it melts too much, just throw the blended frosé back in the freezer until it’s firmed up a bit more!
