Recipe: Blue Citrus Sauvignon Blanc Slushie

This refreshing cocktail is the easiest way to chill this summer.

With all the orange surrounding the Flavors of Florida, you wouldn’t think a blue drink would top our list. But this wine slushie from Amorette’s is elevated relaxation in a chilled glass.

Here’s our take on the Blue Citrus Sauvignon Blanc so you can bring those Florida vibes home with you.

Blue Citrus Sauvignon Blanc Slushie

Yields 2 slushies in martini glasses

Ingredients:

• 2 ounces lemonade

• 4 ounces sauvignon blanc

• 1 ounce blue Curaçao

• Ice

• Lemon wedge to garnish (optional)

Instructions:

1. Add sauvignon blanc, lemonade, blue Curaçao, and 3 to 4 generous scoops of ice to a blender.

2. Blend until frothy and pour into martini glasses.

3. Garnish with a lemon wedge and enjoy!

Takeaway:

We really enjoyed it! The blue color can be daunting to those not into any crazy cocktails, and I thought for sure my mom wouldn’t like it, but the flavors all really come together on this one.

The lemonade adds some tartness to the dryness of the wine, and the blue Curaçao sweetens the deal. We would probably add more ice than we did the first time as ours resulted in more of a drink with “Cane’s style ice cubes” according to my sister.

But this is definitely something I would make again for a pool party, summer get-together, or to differentiate from just a standard glass of wine on the weekends.
