Instructions

  1. 1

    Add the rosé, frozen strawberries, vodka, sugar, and lemon juice to a blender. Pour the wine in first so the blender blade can move freely.

  2. 2

    Blend on high for 30–45 seconds until completely smooth and slushy. You should see a thick, uniform pink mixture with no visible fruit chunks. If it looks too thin or liquidy, toss in ice cubes a handful at a time and blend again until you reach a soft-serve consistency.

  3. 3

    Taste and adjust. If it's too tart, add another tablespoon of sugar and blend for five more seconds. If it's too sweet, squeeze in a bit more lemon juice.

  4. 4

    Pour into glasses immediately. Frosé melts fast, so serve it right away. Garnish with a strawberry slice or a sprig of mint if you're feeling fancy.

  5. 5

    If making a batch ahead, pour the blended mixture into a shallow baking dish and freeze for 1–2 hours, stirring with a fork every 30 minutes to break up ice crystals. Scoop into glasses when ready to serve.


Notes

Tips for Success

  • Chill the rosé wine for at least a couple hours in the fridge before blending so you need less ice and get a more concentrated flavor.
  • Use frozen strawberries rather than fresh to achieve the thick slushy consistency without diluting the drink with extra ice.
  • Add the lemon juice to balance the sweetness and prevent the frosé from tasting flat.
  • Use a high-powered blender for a smoother texture with no grainy bits, though a standard blender will also work.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't use too much ice or blend too briefly — that will result in a chunky, icy texture instead of a smooth slushy.
  • Don't skip the frozen strawberries or the lemon juice — without them the drink will be flat, watery, or lack balance.
  • Don't let the frosé sit long before serving — it melts quickly and loses its slushy consistency.
