Recipe Ingredients + Notes
Watermelon. You’ll need 7 cups of fresh watermelon. You can cut up a whole watermelon or for time saving buy it already cubed from the grocery store.
The flavor of the watermelon really determines the flavor of this sweet drink so pick ripe fruit.
White wine. One 750-ml bottle of favorite white wine.
Ice. Two cups of ice is all that’s needed.
Best wine to use for white wine slushies
The best wine to use is the wine you love! If you enjoy a sweeter wine try a moscato wine or rose.
For dry wine Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc which are light, fresh and a bit more dry (less sweet).
Pro Tip: Blending the wine slushies
This batch makes 11 cups. If you have a high powered blender with a large canister like a Vitamix you’ll be able to blend the entire recipe in one batch.
If you have a regular size blender, divide the ingredients into two batches and combine in a serving pitcher or sealed Mason jar after blending.
