A frozen cocktail made with rosé wine
Frosé is a popular frozen cocktail made primarily with rosé wine. It is known for its refreshing taste and is often enjoyed during warm weather. The drink combines the fruity flavors of rosé with the icy texture of a slushie, making it a favorite at summer gatherings and outdoor events.
History[edit | edit source]
The origins of frosé can be traced back to the mid-2010s when it gained popularity in the United States. The drink was first popularized in New York City and quickly spread to other parts of the country. Its rise in popularity is attributed to the growing trend of rosé wine consumption and the appeal of frozen beverages during the summer months.
Preparation[edit | edit source]
Frosé is typically made by freezing rosé wine and blending it with other ingredients to enhance its flavor and texture. The basic preparation involves the following steps:
1. Freezing the Rosé: The rosé wine is poured into a shallow pan and placed in the freezer until it becomes slushy. This process can take several hours.
2. Blending: Once the rosé is frozen, it is blended with additional ingredients such as simple syrup, lemon juice, and sometimes strawberries or other fruits to add sweetness and flavor.
3. Serving: The blended mixture is poured into glasses and served immediately. It is often garnished with fresh fruit or mint leaves.
Variations[edit | edit source]
There are many variations of frosé, with different recipes incorporating a variety of fruits and flavorings. Some popular variations include:
- Strawberry Frosé: Made by blending frozen rosé with fresh or frozen strawberries.
- Peach Frosé: Incorporates peach puree or fresh peaches for a sweeter taste.
- Citrus Frosé: Adds a mix of citrus juices, such as orange or grapefruit, for a tangy twist.
Popularity[edit | edit source]
Frosé has become a staple at many bars and restaurants, especially those with outdoor seating or rooftop venues. Its popularity is partly due to its visually appealing presentation and the social media trend of sharing colorful and photogenic drinks. The drink is also favored for its versatility, as it can be customized with various fruits and flavors to suit different tastes.
