I LOVE the Summer time! Everyone is in the celebrating mood whether it is a birthday, wedding, a special holiday or just because. School is out, kids are getting excited, and vacation is on. The weather is beautiful and it’s time to kick back and enjoy all the wonderful things that summer can bring. Hey, it’s already spring which means all we want to do Run and Run as hard as we can go with all there is to do. Scratch that! All we really want to do is make frozen slushies and kick back. It’s that AHHH moment we are looking for. On that note I have a few summertime drinks that will wet your palette with the satisfaction of cool and flavorful wonderfulness. Let’s get started with a Blueberry Cream Wine Slushy. And yes, you can sip it, suck it up the straw, or even slurp the sweet goodness!
Blueberry Cream Wine Slush
Start out with the wine of your choice. Any SWEET wine will work
I like to pair it up with Lanthier Winery Mill Street Red as it has a very sweet grapey taste that will pair well with the blueberries. For a heavenly twist, we are going to add some vanilla ice cream. Yep, you heard it right, Ice Cream! Try this one… I think you will like it!
What happens when you blend White Wine (Mill Street White) + Frozen Blueberries + Small amount of Vanilla Ice cream+ Blend in Blender = Ahhhhhhh… Moment!
