Frosé (Frozen Rosé)

Fros recipe
Alex Lau

Choose a full-flavored, full-bodied, dark-colored rosé for freezing. It will lose some of its color and will be a bit diluted after freezing and blending; you want something that can hold its own.

Ingredients

Makes 4 to 6 Servings

1

750 ml bottle hearty, bold rosé (such as a Pinot Noir or Merlot rosé)

½

cup sugar

8

ounces strawberries, hulled, quartered

ounces fresh lemon juice

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Pour rosé into a 13x9" pan and freeze until almost solid (it won't completely solidify due to the alcohol), at least 6 hours.

    Step 2

    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 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.

    Step 3

    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.

    Step 4

    Blend again until frosé is slushy. Divide among glasses.

    Step 5

    Do Ahead: Rosé can be frozen 1 week ahead.

  • I have made this frose for friends and family and it’s a huge hit! They think it’s fancy and complicated to make but it’s so easy and yummy! I’m addition to the fresh strawberries I add frozen to keep it extra slushy and add a beautiful blush color. Garnish with a strawberry and sprig of mint. Frose all day!!

  • What a super-fun, tasty summer recipe. Comes together in a snap. I had only raspberries, which seemed to work just as well as strawberries. Perfect for that midweek backyard hangout with friends. And yes I now you know you Can totally stick your Vitamix blender pitcher in the freezer.

  • I love this recipe and have shared it with multiple friends. I'm not always one to veer from the process, but I add some of the strawberries during the blending. This provides a more rich color... and it just makes sense.
