Frozen strawberries: These give you the icy texture without watering down the drink like ice cubes would. Plus, the natural sweetness and color are just gorgeous.
Rosé wine: Use a rosé that you actually enjoy drinking—it’s the star here, so it really matters. Dry or slightly sweet works, but pick something flavorful.
Simple syrup: This is your sweetness control, and you can adjust according to taste. I sometimes swap this with strawberry syrup or leave it out completely if I want it less sweet.
Lemon juice: Just a splash to brighten and balance the sweetness, giving the drink a fresh zing.
Ice cubes: Just a few to help thicken things up if your strawberries aren’t frozen solid, and to chill everything perfectly.

Make It Your Way

One of the best things about Frosè – Frozen Rose Recipe is how easy it is to make your own. I often tweak mine depending on the season or mood—sometimes a little extra lemon for brightness, other times a splash of vodka for a bit more kick.

Variation: Adding 1 ounce of vodka per serving gives this a fun adult punch. I tried it at a summer BBQ, and it was a hit—but be sure to up the ice a bit so it stays nicely slushy.
Less sweet: If you prefer a tarter drink, just cut back or omit the syrup. Sometimes I skip it and rely on the strawberries’ natural sweetness and lemon juice.
White wine substitute: No rosé on hand? I’ve made this with a crisp white wine, and it still tastes fantastic—just a different vibe.

Step-by-Step: How I Make Frosè – Frozen Rose Recipe

Step 1: Gather your fresher-than-fresh ingredients

Before you do anything, make sure your strawberries are frozen solid. This keeps the texture perfect and ensures your frosè is icy without being watered down. Also, pick a rosé that you’re excited to sip solo—that flavor is front and center!

Step 2: Blend it all up

Pop 2 cups of frozen strawberries, 2 cups of rosé wine, ¼ cup of simple syrup, 2 tablespoons of freshly squeezed lemon juice, and 4-5 ice cubes right into your blender. Then blitz it all until silky smooth—usually about 30 to 60 seconds, depending on your blender’s power. Don’t overblend; you want to keep a lovely icy texture.

Step 3: Serve and garnish like a pro

Pour your frosè into chilled glasses and garnish with a couple of fresh or frozen strawberries. I love that pop of color, and it makes the drink feel extra special. Then, get ready to sip something seriously refreshing!

Top Tip

From my many attempts at perfecting this Frosè – Frozen Rose Recipe, I’ve learned a few tricks that help you get that flawless slushy texture and balanced flavor every time.

Chill Your Glasses: Pop your glasses in the freezer while you prepare the drink—it keeps your frosè colder longer and makes it feel extra indulgent.
Use Frozen Strawberries: Fresh berries just don’t give you the same icy texture. The frozen ones help keep your frosè delightfully slushy without diluting it.
Adjust Sweetness Gradually: Start with less syrup and add more as needed. It’s easier to sweeten than to fix an overly sugary drink!
Don’t Overblend: Hit the blender just long enough to mix well—overdoing it can melt your ice too much, losing that refreshing chill.

How to Serve Frosè – Frozen Rose Recipe

Garnishes

I always go for bright, fresh strawberries on top—sometimes a sprig of mint if I have it handy. The contrast of red and green makes your drink look gorgeous, and the mint adds a tiny pop of herbal freshness that elevates each sip.

Side Dishes

This frosè pairs wonderfully with light, summery snacks. Think fresh cheeses like burrata, some crusty bread, or a simple charcuterie board. I’ve also enjoyed it alongside grilled shrimp or a crisp spring salad—keeping everything fresh and balanced.

Creative Ways to Present

For a special get-together, I like serving frosè in coupe glasses with edible flowers on top—pretty enough to impress and just festive enough to feel like a celebration. Another fun idea: rim the glasses with crushed freeze-dried strawberries for an extra pop of flavor and color.

Make Ahead and Storage

Storing Leftovers

If you happen to have leftovers, I store mine in an airtight container in the freezer. Because of the icy texture, it tends to harden up, but just give it a quick blend or stir when you’re ready to drink again.

Freezing

Freezing the frosè works well if you want to prep ahead of time. Just blend it all and freeze in a shallow dish. When you’re ready to serve, scrape it with a fork to fluff it up or run it through the blender for a few seconds. It keeps the texture fresh and icy.

Reheating

This drink isn’t meant to be reheated since it’s all about the chill, but if it becomes too firm, just let it thaw slightly at room temperature, then stir or blend lightly to get back to slush perfection.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Can I make Frosè – Frozen Rose Recipe without a blender?

While a blender is the easiest way to get that smooth slushy texture, you can try mashing the frozen strawberries by hand and stirring vigorously with the wine and other ingredients, but the texture won’t be as consistent or smooth.

What kind of rosé wine is best for frosè?

Go for a rosé that’s dry to semi-sweet with bright fruity notes. Avoid anything too heavy or overly tannic—light, crisp rosés tend to work beautifully. I usually use ones I love drinking on their own for best flavor.

Can I make this recipe non-alcoholic?

Absolutely! Substitute the rosé wine with a sparkling pink grape juice or a berry-flavored sparkling water. Adjust the lemon juice and sweetness to taste, and you’ll have a refreshing mocktail version.

How far in advance can I prepare Frosè – Frozen Rose Recipe?

You can prepare this a few hours ahead and keep it frozen until serving. For the best texture, freeze the blended mixture and fluff it up right before pouring. Avoid making it too far in advance or the ice crystals may grow larger and change the texture.

This Frosè – Frozen Rose Recipe has quickly become one of my favorite ways to chill out on a sunny afternoon or wow guests without any stress.
