A Delicious Frosé Recipe

Nothing says summer like frosé (frozen rosé wine)…it is a refreshing treat and perfect for hot temperatures. Not to forget…it’s pretty, always a crowd pleaser and…my favorite part? It can be prepared in advance. If you are hosting a little soirée just whip up some apps and frosé and you are ready to entertain! I found this recipe on bonappetit.com and it is super simple to make. One difference in my preparation…I actually left the strawberries in the syrup for a few hours to give it more flavor.

Ingredients

1 bottle rosé wine

½ cup sugar

8 ounces strawberries, hulled, quartered

2½ ounces fresh lemon juices

Instructions

Pour rosé into a 13×9″ pan and freeze until almost solid (it won’t completely solidify due to the alcohol), at least 6 hours.

Meanwhile, bring sugar and ½ cup water to a boil in a medium saucepan; cook, stirring constantly, until sugar dissolves, about 3 minutes. Add strawberries, remove from heat, and let sit 30 minutes (or a few hours, as I did) to infuse syrup with strawberry flavor. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a small bowl (do not press on solids); cover and chill until cold, about 30 minutes.

Scrape rosé into a blender. Add lemon juice, 3½ ounces strawberry syrup, and 1 cup crushed ice and purée until smooth. Transfer blender jar to freezer and freeze until frosé is thickened (aim for milkshake consistency), 25–35 minutes.

Blend again until frosé is slushy. Divide among glasses. Serve. Toast. Enjoy!

Do Ahead: Rosé can be frozen 1 week ahead.

An afternoon with a friend sipping wine makes for an incredibly enjoyable day. Good conversation, a nice bottle, the sunshine and sea? Hard to beat. Since I live in Miami and the weather is warm most of the year, I tend to drink lighter drinks-wines, champagnes and an all time favorite is rosé. Rosé is a crowd pleaser. It can be served with brunch, lunch, mid-afternoon, with a snack or alone. It is not overly sweet but light, crisp and refreshing.

So when I was approached about trying Rêve De La Mer rose wine I was excited. A new rose? Excellent! Rêve De La Mer means “Dream of the Sea” in French. This delicious wine contains notes of strawberry, raspberry, apple, grapefruit, a touch of rose petal and orange blossom and then finishes with apricot and white peach. It is produced on the island of Corsica, which has a history of making wine for the past 2600 years.

This wine tastes as good as it looks with its pretty peach hue. I served it on this Christophle tray with gold rimmed stemless glasses and these gold polka dotted cocktail napkins. Add flowers and you have a stylish presentation, perfect for an afternoon catching up with a friend.

Now it it just time to raise your glass and celebrate!

Cheers!

If you would like to toast as the French, it is Santé, which means “health” (good)!
