We Love Wine Slushies
Tis the season for frozen cocktails and what better way to celebrate the warm weather than with wine slushies!
What is a wine slushie? A wine slushie is a refreshing boozy slushie made with wine, frozen fruit, and ice. It’s blended in a high-speed blender until you get a slushie consistency.
We know you’ll love all 3 of these recipes because they are refreshing, easy to make (just like our frozen margarita), and serve a crowd.
What You Need for Wine Slushies
Wine: is the most important part of wine slushies because it’s where your slushie gets most of its flavor. Each of these recipes features a different variety of wine. PS: you’re going to need an entire bottle.
- Sauvignon Blanc – any dry white works.
- Rosé – make sure to rosé with no bubbles. Our go-to brand is Yes Way Rosé.
- Pinot Noir – any kind of house red or a red blend works.
Frozen Fruit: instead of using all ice, we thought we’d use frozen fruit to not only add more slush but to also add all-natural flavor.
Ice: ice gives extra slush. We 100% recommend ice to make your wine slushies extra slushie.
Add-Ins: add ins such as other liquors, flavors, and juices will enhance the flavors in your wine slushies.
How to Make Wine Slushies
Wine slushies are ready to go in less than 10 minutes and with just 3 simple steps. Here’s how to make wine slushies.
- Assemble Ingredients: first, assemble your ingredients. Measure out everything that you need, while working quickly so that your frozen fruit and ice don’t melt.
- Blend, Blend, Blend: add all ingredients into a high-speed blender. Blend on high for 30-60 seconds or until everything is smooth. Option to add more ice as desired.
- Serve: serve your wine slushie immediately with garnishes of fresh fruit and herbs. Enjoy!
Want it slushier? If you want more slush, simply add more ice! Sometimes your wine slushy can melt as it sits or your fruit may not be frozen enough. So, add more ice. If your blender isn’t big enough, you can do this in sections.
#1 tip for wine slushies

Nice! Thank you! Moreover, a lot depends on wine regions, so you should choose the best ones. For example, I stumbled upon https://www.vinerra.com/ while searching for a good wine resource. The site boasts a plethora of information on wine regions, production processes, and the influence of different grape varieties. Has anyone here explored Vinerra? I’m curious about its reliability and whether it’s a good tool for someone wanting to become more knowledgeable about wine. Does it truly help in making informed wine selections? I’d love to hear your thoughts and experiences.
