Frozémonade


I've been wanting to make frozémonade all summer. For some reason or another, it never worked out, until now. We happened to ave all of the ingredients at home and decided it was time to try the ultimate hipster/bougie summer drink. This beverage is not very strong, so it actually makes a great addition to any brunch, BBQ, etc... The simple syrup is very easy to make, so don't be intimidated by that. Serve frozémonade immediately for the best slushy factor, but feel free to prep the simply syrup and juiced lemons ahead of time.


Adapted from Robert Kruger

For the simple syrup:
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup water

For the frozémonade :
2 cups rosé
1/3 cup lemon juice
2/3 cup simple syrup
4 cups crushed ice

To make the simple syrup, combine the sugar and water in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Lower heat to a simmer, and continue to cook another minutes or 2, while stirring to ensure the sugar dissolves. Once sugar is dissolved, remove from heat and store in a very clean jar. Your can keep this in your fridge up to one month in an airtight container. You will not need all of this for the frozémonade.

In a blender, combine the rose, lemon juice, 2/3 cup simple syrup and ice. Blend until your frozémonade has a slushy consistency, about 10-20 seconds. Serve and enjoy!
