Strawberry Frosé
Living in Florida, I am constantly on the lookout for tasty frozen drinks to cool down with as soon as the summer heat hits. My strawberry frosé recipe is the ideal summer cocktail - it's flavorful, frozen, and so refreshing! When it's hot outside, this strawberry frosé will become one of your favorite ways to cool down. Need a non-alcoholic drink to pair it with? Try my mangonadas! They make a great pair.
If you know me, you know I love mother's day cocktails, too, and this is the perfect one. Along with my MOMosa, this is my most popular mother's day cocktail recipe, and I know you're going to love it!
Three Essential Frosé Ingredients
A great frosé calls for three ingredients: bottled rosé wine, frozen fruit, and a sweetener like honey or simple syrup.
- Rosé Wine: My recommendation is always to use your favorite brand of rosé, but if you're unfamiliar with wine brands, keep it budget-friendly by looking for rosé brands on sale. You can typically pick up a decent bottle of rosé for a great budget price by looking for the sales.
- Frozen Fruit: Although I'm using frozen strawberries for my frozen rosé, keep in mind that you can use other frozen fruits. Peaches, mangos, cherries, etc. are all great choices, too, and you can buy them already frozen in the frozen foods aisle of your local grocery store.
- Honey: I'm using honey as a sweetener for my frosé. Local honey will taste the best, but I also love Savannah Bee brand honey. You can also use other sweeteners, like a simple syrup, agave syrup, or even maple syrup. This will slightly alter the taste of your drink, but all work well.
How do you freeze rosé for frosé?
- Pour a bottle of your favorite rosé wine into a large plastic container or baking dish and place it in the freezer until frozen (about 8 hours). Make sure there is at least ½ inch of space at the top - liquid expands, and if you don't leave room, the container could burst.
- Scoop the frozen rose out of the plastic storage container and into the blender when ready to use. The taste is so refreshing!
Do you need to strain frosé?
No, not at all. Even if you're using strawberries, which have seeds, you don't need to strain your frosé. We're blending everything together in a blender - you won't notice the seeds!
How to Make Frosé
- Add frozen rosé, frozen strawberries, and honey to a blender.
- Pulse until everything is combined.
- Garnish with additional strawberries. Serve immediately or place in the refrigerator for no longer than 15 minutes.
Making a Non-Alcoholic Frosé
You can use non-alcoholic rosé wine to make non-alcoholic frose. Common brands of non-alcoholic rosé, such as Welch's, are available at most grocery stores.
Tips for Making a Frozen Rosé Cocktail
- Try adding other flavors, like frozen watermelon or frozen peaches.
- Use local-flavored honey for a flavor boost! I love using lemon juice or lavender honey for this recipe.
- You can use any of these sweeteners in place of honey, agave syrup, maple syrup, or simple syrup.
- If you want a thicker more frozen cocktail, you can add ice cubes.
FAQ
To make frosé ahead of time, blend and place the mixture back in Tupperware. Freeze again until ready to enjoy. Just make sure to leave ½ inch of space at the top. Blend again before serving.
Rosé takes about 6-8 hours to fully freeze. Make sure to leave space at the top of the container you freeze it in - liquid expands, and if you don't leave space, it may break open the container.
