How to make Frozè, on the go, without mechanics
This article is brought to you by Kim Crawford Wines, but the hack has been road-tested and recorded by the Yahoo Lifestyle Australia editorial team.
Is there anything more lovely than an Instagrammable glass of rosè with your pals on a hot day?
Yes way rosè. Frosè on the go, whether it’s hosting a brunch at your place or catching up with the girls at a chic picnic in the park, we have just the trick for drinking rosè in a whole new elegant way.
We know it’s impossible to zap some ice and rosè in your kitchen with a blender when you’re on the go. So, we’ve figured out a way to make the cocktail either on the beach or out with friends, without an electrical appliance.
Here’s what you’ll need:
1 x bottle rosè (we prefer Kim Crawford’s Hawkes Bay Rosè)
1 x bag of ice
1 x shaker of salt
1 x medium-sized plastic sandwich bag
1 x large-sized plastic sandwich bag
1 x teatowel
Optional:
1 x duct tape
1 x scissors
Fruit or garnish of your choice
It’s preferable to pack the wine and ice in a mini esky but it isn’t the end-of-the-world if you don’t have one.
Here’s the method to making your own frothy frozè by hand:
Fill the medium-sized plastic sandwich bag with one glass of rosè, make sure all of the air is out of the baggy, and snap-lock it shut. This is where you can choose to tape it shut with duct tape, but it’s not totally necessary.
Fill the large-sized plastic sandwich bag with ice, shake salt over the ice. You’re going to want to use a lot of salt, perhaps 10 percent of the filling.
Place the bag of rosè into the bag of ice. Snap-lock it shut.
Shake, shake, SHAKE! You might want to wrap the bag in a tea towel as it gets quite cold.
Keep shaking! Go for five minutes if you can. Think of it as a toning exercise for your arms.
Pour the slushie into a cup.
Enjoy!
This has been tried and tested by the Yahoo Lifestyle Australia editorial team, and it’s a fun cocktail hack when you’re out and about. Instant deliciousness and elegance.
If it’s a super hot day and your slushie melts quickly, pop some fresh ice in the cup with a couple of strawberries, raspberries and blueberries. A luxurious take on a classic beverage.
