Who doesn’t love a wine slushy?
What is Frose made of?
This frosé recipe is made with super easy, sweet and fresh tasting ingredients!
- Rose wine: I recommend a full-bodied, darker rosé. Its stronger flavor is less likely to be diluted after mixing.
- Ice: The ice gives the frosé the classic mushy texture.
- Frozen Strawberries: The strawberries provide natural sweetness and underline the taste of the wine. Besides, they’re basically making a smoothie out of this, aren’t they? 😉
- Lemon: For the best flavor, I recommend fresh lemon juice.
- Honey: Honey is my natural sweetener of choice, but you can use plain syrup instead.

Does Frosé taste like wine?
Yes! In the best sense! The taste of the wine comes into its own and is further enhanced by the addition of fruit, sweetener and lemon.
It’s the perfect balance of sweet, tart, tangy and refreshing!
tips and hints
- Adjust according to taste. Homemade cocktails are the best because you can make them any way you like. Play with the ingredient amounts to find the best flavor balance for you!
- Start with less sweetener, Then add more after tasting it. I like mine a little less sweet, but others like it sweeter. You can always add more!
- If the froze is not thick enough, You can add more ice cream or berries. Alternatively, you can pour the mixture into a casserole dish, cover and place in the freezer for 30 minutes.
- Add more fruit. Try frozen watermelon, raspberries, peaches or a combination!
- Make it more alcoholic. Would you like to add an extra kick to your cocktail? Try adding a shot or two of vodka or tequila blanco.
How to store it
For the best flavor and texture, serve this cocktail immediately after mixing!
If you want to make it ahead of time, you can blend the drink, pour into ice cube trays and freeze. When ready to serve, simply blend again, but remember that the drink will lose some of its flavor if left in the freezer.
