Okay…as the phrase goes….ROSÉ ALL DAY!! It is so fun in the summer if it is served super chilled! It is also super pretty! I, personally, love a good rosé with a burger!! If we are just sipping by the pool, my go-to region is always Cotes de Provence! It seems like they consistently taste good, and the color is this beautiful peachy pink!! Something about it makes you feel special!
So when I came across this recipe from Bon Appetit Magazine for a summer frosé, it was love at first sip!! In honor of National Rosé Day 2018, we would love to share this recipe with you!
Ingredients:
-
1 750 ml bottle hearty, bold rosé (such as a Pinot Noir or Merlot rosé)
-
½ cup sugar
-
8 ounces strawberries, hulled, quartered
-
2½ ounces fresh lemon juice
recipe:
-
Pour rosé into a 13×9″ pan and freeze until almost solid (it won’t completely solidify due to the alcohol), at least 6 hours.
-
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.
-
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.
-
Blend again until frosé is slushy. Divide among glasses.
Bon Appetit!!
