Ingredients

Red Wine Slushie:

1 (750 ml) bottle of red wine, such as Red Moscato sweet and budget friendly
1/3 cup (125 ml) Grand Marnier or Cointreau
1 cup (134 g) frozen strawberries
1 cup (116 g) frozen blackberries
1 cup (118 g) frozen raspberries
1 tbsp. (15 ml) simple syrup* homemade or purchase
extra frozen berries for garnish

Instructions

Add the wine, Grand Marnier, frozen strawberries, frozen blackberries, frozen raspberries, and simple syrup to a blender.
1 (750 ml) bottle of red wine, such as Red Moscato, 1/3 cup (125 ml) Grand Marnier, 1 cup (134 g) frozen strawberries, 1 cup (116 g) frozen blackberries, 1 cup (118 g) frozen raspberries, 1 tbsp. (15 ml) simple syrup*
Blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth.
For a smoother texture, strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a freezer-safe container to remove the seeds. Skip this step if you don’t mind the texture.
Freeze for at least 3 hours, or overnight.
Scoop into glasses using an ice cream scoop. If it’s too firm, let it sit at room temp for a few minutes or scrape with a fork to loosen. Garnish with extra frozen berries if you want.

Notes

*How to Make Simple Syrup: Combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan. Heat over medium, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Let cool completely and store in a sealed jar in the fridge for up to 1 month.
Wine Substitutions: Sweet red blends or sweet Lambrusco also work well in place of Red Moscato.
Make-Ahead Tip: You can make the slushie up to 3 days ahead and store it in the freezer. Just scrape or stir before serving.
Serving Tip: A frozen glass helps keep the slushie from melting too quickly on warm days.
