A Classic

Refreshing twist on a classic. 


As the warmer months approach, there's nothing quite like a chilled drink to keep the heat at bay. Enter the Sangria Slushie—a delightful fusion of flavors that combines the rich depth of red wine with the refreshing chill of a slushie. This tantalizing treat is perfect for summer gatherings or a relaxing evening on the porch.

Ingredients You'll Need:

  • 1 bottle (750 ml) red wine (try Tempranillo or Merlot for a robust base)

  • 1/4 cup brandy to add a warm, spirited touch

  • 1/4 cup orange liqueur (such as triple sec) for a citrusy zing

  • 1/4 cup fresh orange juice to brighten the mix

  • 2 tablespoons simple syrup (sweeten to your liking)

  • 1 cup frozen mixed berries (strawberries, raspberries, blueberries add color and flavor)

  • 1 cup ice cubes to achieve that perfect slushie texture

  • Slices of orange and fresh berries for a garnish that looks as good as it tastes

Directions:

  1. Blend the Ingredients: Gather your ingredients and pour them into a high-speed blender. This includes the red wine, brandy, orange liqueur, orange juice, simple syrup, frozen berries, and ice cubes.

  2. Blend Until Smooth: Set your blender to high and blend until the mixture is smooth and reaches that dreamy slushy consistency.

  3. Serve with Style: Pour your Sangria Slushie into glasses and garnish with orange slices and a handful of fresh berries for a visually appealing and flavor-packed finish.

This Sangria Slushie is more than just a drink—it's an experience. The combination of flavors delivers a perfect balance of sweetness and acidity, while the slushie texture provides a cooling sensation that’s hard to beat. Whether you're hosting a summer BBQ or simply unwinding after a long day, this refreshing concoction is sure to be a hit. Cheers to sipping something sensational!
