Variations
I sometimes use frozen raspberries or peaches for different fruit flavors. When I want a citrusy twist, I add a splash of orange juice. I also enjoy blending in a few basil leaves for a fresh herbal flavor.
storage/reheating
I prefer serving strawberry frosé immediately for the best texture. If I have leftovers, I store them in the freezer and blend again before serving since the mixture hardens as it freezes.
FAQs
What type of rosé works best for frosé?
I like using a dry rosé because the strawberries and sweetener already add enough sweetness.
Can I make strawberry frosé without alcohol?
Yes, I sometimes replace the rosé with sparkling grape juice or strawberry lemonade for a non-alcoholic version.
Do I need frozen strawberries?
Frozen strawberries help create the thick slushy texture, so I prefer using them instead of fresh berries.
Can I prepare frosé ahead of time?
Yes, I freeze the blended mixture and reblend it before serving for the best consistency.
How do I make the drink sweeter?
I simply add more honey or simple syrup to taste.
