Strawberry and Peach Wine Slushies
From: Natalie @ www.aturtleslifeforme.com/
I made these Strawberry and Peach Wine Slushies two weeks ago to test them out before the Big Game coming up. I had one immediately after making it (delicious!), and then I froze the rest to test out how well they would defrost.
After a week of being frozen, I scooped about 3/4 cup out of each flavor. I let it thaw for about 5 minutes or so, then filled each glass. They tasted great and I love having it in my freezer now ready to go!
This is a great recipe to customize too according to your tastes! You could try any combination of fruits: blueberry and peach, strawberry and mango, raspberry and peach, etc. You can also switch up your wine flavors! Chardonnay is a favorite of mine, but Frontera Wines as many delicious options to choose from: Moscato, Merlot, Sauvignon Blanc and more. Plus they’re all affordable, so it still meets the requirements of my perfect party food checklist.!
Ingredients:
2.5 cups frozen strawberries
2.5 cups frozen peaches
1.5 cups Frontera Chardonnay, divided
Directions:
In blender, combine frozen strawberries with 3/4 cup Frontera Chardonnay.
Blend until smooth.
You can add more Chardonnay if you don’t want it quite as thick.
Empty pitcher and rinse out to remove strawberry residue.
Then repeat with peaches and remaining Chardonnay.
You can just pour into your wine glasses in layers, but I wanted to take it a step further and get he angled look!
These are so pretty and colorful, that they almost double as the centerpiece for your table!
To get the angled look, place your glasses in a loaf pan at a tilt.
Pour in the bottom layer.
Then carefully pour the second layer over it, using a spoon to gently push it in and towards the bottom if needed.
Once the glass is full, you can remove from loaf pan and stand upright.
This technique works better the thicker your slushie is, so if you thin out your slushie with more Chardonnay (which also isn’t a bad thing!), your layers might not stay as distinct.
I popped an extra strawberry on top for garnish and the ever-fun paper straw!
