Watermelon and Rose go hand in hand - both cool and refreshing but not too sweet. Add them to the freezer then blend and you have the newest cocktail obsession - Froze'. I stumbled upon this recipe and with a few changes I knew it was the perfect signature summertime drink.
I love casual summertime evenings. A couple of good slices of cheese, some watermelon froze', and some of your best girlfriends - it sure is good for the soul.
Ready for the freezer.
Add the frozen Rose' to the blender, with a cup of watermelon and a handful of ice.
A bottle of the Rose makes four little drinks - so if you have a crowd or a few more girlfriends over you might want to double this.
Add small slices of watermelon to the side for garnish.
Right about here is where my farmer said "Let me know when you are done taking pictures because I am going to eat that cheese." I drank the froze' - he ate the cheese. That's why we work!
We have had unseasonable and beautiful weather for the past week or so. So serve in a cute basket and head out to the front porch to the swing bed (which normally is furnished with a twin mattress as the cushion, but it's currently getting upholstered)
Watermelon Froze
Ingredients:
- One bottle of your favorite rose wine
- 1 cup of watermelon, cubed
- handful of ice cubes
Instructions:
- Pour your wine into a large container, one that will allow you to easily pour it out once it partially freezes. Do not keep it in the wine bottle because it is too hard to remove it from the bottle once it starts to harden.
- Freeze for 6 hours or more until it's mostly frozen. It won't 100% freeze due to the alcohol content
- Add all items, wine, watermelon and ice cubes, to a blender and crush.
- Place in freezer to harden more if you like, or serve immediately
Notes
- Easily make this in advance and just add it to a blender before serving.
