The Best Frosé Recipe for the Start of Summer

frosé

Happy official start of Summer (and frosé season). YAY! I cannot believe that Summer ’17 is starting. TBH I’m somewhat sad I don’t get much of a break… but #adulting.

Today I’m sharing one of my favorite drinks for the season, because what could be more appropriate than frosé? If you are new to the whole frosé trend, it is essentially frozen rosé, but usually has some other ingredients in it. Chilled rosé is just my favorite on a hot summer afternoon– as I’ve shown here and here, so this drink is always poolside at my house.

Instead of sticking to the regular chilled glass, I decided to switch it up and make a yummy and refreshing frozen drink.  If you follow along with me on Instagram, then you probably saw my step-by-step tutorial for this tasty drink a few weeks ago! I figured I would recap it on here so all of the steps are in one place for you.

  2. I’ve been literally dyyyyying to try frosé and still have yet to actually make it happen. Wishing you were still here so we could have a girl’s night!!

  3. Ahhh the perfect poolside drink! Something about being at the pool or on the beach just calls for a super fruity, girly drink. Although sometimes an ice cold beer does the trick! Love the swan pool floaty in the background, and thanks for recapping your IG creation on your blog!
