A full flavored Rosé made into the most refreshing slushy will keep you cool this summer. Frosé, also known as a Frozen Rosé is the perfect combination of your favorite Rosé wine, grapefruit juice, pomegranate juice and homemade strawberry simple syrup. This is what summer dreams are made of!

This week my husband and I celebrated our 14 year wedding anniversary and I have to say, I am so proud of the life that we have created together. We have worked hard, traveled a lot, started a beautiful family and I feel so lucky that I get to live this amazing life by his side.

Several years ago we traveled to Napa Valley for an anniversary trip and among all the amazing wine we tasted and the food that we ate, we came across a very small vineyard, that was also their residence, and the host served us her favorite Frosé. I have had frozen Rosé before, but it never tasted this good! Once we got home I played around with the recipe and added the ingredients that she told me to use and I have created The Best Frosé that tastes just like the one we had in Napa. It is more flavorful than others that I have sipped on because it combines your favorite Rosé (I recommend a dryer one), grapefruit juice, pomegranate juice and a homemade strawberry simple syrup that takes this to another level. It is frozen over night and then blended up to make the perfect summer cocktail to sip on.

If you love cocktails with a fruity twist, you will also love this Summer Rosé Sangria or Raspberry Sorbet Champagne Cocktail.

Add in sliced fresh strawberries and boil for 1-2 more minutes
Store the Strawberry Simple Syrup in a glass jar in the refrigerator overnight to chill
