Print Recipe

A simple, cool, and flavorful frozen cocktail combining fresh watermelon, crisp rosé, and a splash of lemon juice for the perfect summer refreshment.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 750 ml dry, crisp rosé wine (e.g., Miraval or Whispering Angel)
  • 4 cups fresh watermelon, cubed (about 600 grams)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons simple syrup (optional)
  • 1 to 1.5 cups ice cubes
  • Fresh mint leaves for garnish

Instructions

  1. Freeze the rosé: Pour the entire 750 ml bottle of rosé into a shallow freezer-safe container. Freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight until slushy but not rock solid. Stir every 2 hours to break up ice crystals.
  2. Prepare the watermelon: Cut fresh watermelon into 1-inch cubes, removing seeds. Measure about 4 cups (600 grams). Chill for best blending results.
  3. Make simple syrup (optional): Combine equal parts sugar and water in a small saucepan, heating gently until sugar dissolves. Cool before use.
  4. Blend ingredients: In a high-speed blender, combine frozen rosé chunks, watermelon cubes, 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, 2 tablespoons simple syrup (optional), and 1 to 1.5 cups ice cubes. Blend on high for about 30-45 seconds until smooth but still icy.
  5. Check texture & serve: Pour into chilled glasses. If too thick, add a splash of rosé or water and pulse again briefly. Garnish with fresh mint leaves.

Notes

Do not freeze rosé solid; stir every 2 hours to keep it slushy. Use ripe, fragrant watermelon for best flavor. Adjust simple syrup based on watermelon sweetness. Use pulse function on blender to avoid melting ice too much. Serve immediately for best texture. Store leftovers in airtight container in freezer up to 24 hours.
