I’m definitely looking forward to this weekend. First, it has been beautiful outside this week, and this weekend is also suppose to be beautiful. Secondly, I’m actually off work all weekend long! I have worked the last couple of weekends, so I’m pretty excited for the chance to sleep in a little. Finally, it’s Memorial Day weekend! Memorial Day weekend is the best because it’s a 3 day weekend and also the unofficial start of summer. It is finally time to spend time on the deck or by the pool with a nice cold drink and a good book.
One of my favorite summertime drinks is the cherry limeade. When I was high school my mom figured out how to make a Sonic cherry limeade lookalike, and we would make them in the afternoon after working in the yard. The other day when I was on Pinterest, I saw some wine slushie recipes and thought it would be cool to try to make a cherry limeade wine slushie. I looked and couldn’t really find a recipe for one, so I came up with this recipe. I used the Barefoot Moscato when I made this recipe because it was like $6. You can use any Moscato wine for this recipe. This recipe is easy to make and the result is pretty tasty.
Ingredients
- 1 bottle of Moscato (I used Barefoot Moscato)
- 1 can of frozen limeade
- A little cherry grenadine
- Pour the can of frozen limeade into the blender along with the bottle
The drink is colorful and looks tasty! of Moscato. If you would like a drink that is closer to a slushie, then you can add ice to the blender.
- Blend the frozen limeade and the wine using the slushie button.
- After the frozen limeade and the wine are blended together, pour a little of the cherry grenadine in the blender.
- Blend the drink for a 2 or 3 short pulses.
- Pour the drink into your glass of choice and enjoy!
