Directions

Strawberry Simple Syrup:

1. In a mason jar or heatproof container, combine water and sugar. Microwave until boiling, about 1–2 minutes.
2. Stir until the sugar is fully dissolved, then add chopped strawberries.
3. Refrigerate overnight to infuse.
4. Strain through a fine mesh sieve, discarding the solids. Syrup can be prepared up to 5 days in advance.

Boozy Frosé:

1. Pour rosé wine into a gallon-size freezer bag and place it in a dish to catch any leaks. Freeze overnight. The wine will not freeze completely; a slushy texture is ideal.
2. In a blender, combine the frozen or slushy wine, vodka, and 4 tablespoons of strawberry simple syrup (add more to taste). Blend until smooth.
3. Serve immediately in chilled glasses.

FAQs

Can I make this ahead of time?
Yes, the strawberry simple syrup can be made up to 5 days in advance. Freeze the wine overnight, then blend just before serving.

Why doesn’t the wine freeze solid?
Rosé contains alcohol, which lowers the freezing point, creating the perfect slushy texture for frosé.

Can I make individual servings?
Yes, pour smaller portions of frozen wine into ice cube trays and blend as needed.
