These Aperol spritz slushies are the only think we want to drink this weekend

Go on.

Trine Jensen-Burke

Aperol is the unofficial-offical drink of the summer.

And we have just come across a way to make our favourite aperitivo even better – especially with sunshine promised for the weekend.

Say hello to the rosé-aperol slushie – AKA the adult frozen treat we are planning on sipping on from now until September.

And when you try it – you’ll be knocking this back too, trust us.

Rosé-Aperol Slushies

Ingredients
  • 1 bottle of rosè wine
  • 120 ml / 4 oz. Aperol
  • 90 ml / 3 oz. freshly pressed and strained orange juice
  • 1-2 orange slices for garnish per glass
Instructions
  1. Mix the bottle of rosé wine with the Aperol and the orange juice and pour into a plastic container. I like to split this mixture over two or three containers so I can make just two cocktails if I want to.
  2. Freeze for at least 8 hours, but this can be also made days ahead. Although it will freeze well it won’t ever be solid and easy to blend.
  3. Transfer the frozen mix into your blender and process on high speed until completely crushed.
  4. Pour into glasses and serve immediately garnished with orange slices.

Is it cocktail hour yet?
