The Five O'clock: Frosé

Sponsored Content

This summer sipper brings together a dry rosé, fresh strawberries and lemon juice for a refreshing blender drink perfect for a warm summer day.

Frosé is simple to make, but requires a little forethought: you have to freeze the wine in advance. It’s worth it.

Ingredients

One 750ml bottle of Courtyard Winery Dry Rosé

½ cup Sugar

8 ounces strawberries fresh or frozen

2 ½ ounces fresh lemon juice

Pour rosé into a 13x9” pan and freeze until almost solid (it won’t completely solidify because of 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 fine-mesh sieve into a small bowl; cover and chill until cold, about 30 minutes.

Spoon frozen rosé from pan into blender. Add lemon juice, 4 ½ ounces strawberry syrup, and 1 cup crushed ice and puree until smooth. Transfer blender jar to freezer and chill until frosé is thickened, 25-35 minutes.

Blend again until frosé is slushy. Divide among glasses.

Do ahead: Frosé can rest in the freezer for a week.
