Frosé (Frozen rosé)

Not yet rated

If you've never tried this genius tipple, you're missing out. Sally Abé's delicious frosé recipe is inspired by a recent trip to Miami, where the locals know that the best antidote to scorching heat is to sit back and sup on these oh so grown-up slushies.

Having recently returned from Miami, where I drank a serious amount of this delicious, grown-up version of a slushie, I was desperate to recreate it at home. After getting the low-down from the bartender in the hotel where I tried these wonderful drinks, I came back and started experimenting. I found using a fruity, floral wine that was darker in colour got best results, as it held its flavour once frozen.

If the sun ever manages to show itself this summer, then frosé should be your go-to drink for barbecues and parties. It is fruity, cooling and refreshing, but don’t be fooled by the easy-drinking nature of this tipple – a couple of glasses can go to your head quicker than you expect!

Tip the rosé into a ziplock bag and place in the freezer
