Today I’m sharing a frozen drink recipe. A *pink* frozen drink recipe. With lemon in it. And watermelon. And wine. It’s a watermelon and lemon white wine slush recipe that is easy to make and deliciously refreshing.
Sometimes I’m in the mood for pink lemonade. Sometimes I’m in the mood for wine. And sometimes I’m in the mood for both.
That’s how I decided to try developing a wine slush recipe pinkened with watermelon and jazzed up with lemon.
This wine slush recipe is super easy to make. Cut and freeze some watermelon and chill some white wine. Put them in the blender with some lemon juice and sugar and whiz it up. Then keep it in your fridge until you’re in the mood to add some to a half glass of white wine to give it some extra chill and pretty pink flavor.
Oh, and if the whole idea of frozen treats with wine sounds up your alley, you should also check out my frozen watermelon white wine dessert recipe.
Make a batch of this wine slush recipe and have yourself an icy, cool frozen cocktail tonight.

Definitely late to the party here, but I’ve done this with 1 c (higher quality) Vodka and it was amazing. You can do it w/o freezing the watermelon, just puree it in a food processor
This looks like an incredibly yummy recipe, too bad summer grilling season is over, it would be perfect. Will definitely make in future.
Thanks

Love this! Like a margarita, but without the tequila headache the following day! I would totally make this!
Andrea, No tequila headache here! It’s true. This is as refreshing as a frozen margarita but not nearly as boozy. You can also use soda water in the last step instead of adding more wine if you want it to have even less alcohol.
This would be so so so good with either a riesling or moscato. I love watermelon and wine, duh. What a good refreshing summer drink idea!
I met some great blogging friends online too. The internet is a great enrichment to our lives no? ;)
What a neat drink! Lovely addition of wine, that should keep me busy ^.^

This drink sounds very refreshing, perfect for summer!
I love that this uses watermelon which is something I could exist on during the summer! I have never tried watermelon, lemon and wine together….I guess I’ll have to make it my homework!
