A few weeks ago, I introduced you to one of my favorite summer drinks: the red wine slushie. A lot of my friends are just not red wine drinkers even if you turn it into an adult type Slurpee. So, of course, I had to come up with a white wine slushie for them to drink. I played around with a few different types of wine but the moscato wine slushie seemed to the most popular.
This slushie is just as easy to make as the red wine version but, in our house, disappears a lot quicker so be sure to make extra! My most popular version to date was made with the Gallo Vineyards Moscato so give that one a try as your making these up! I also recommend taking it out of the freezer about 15 – 20 minutes before you want to serve it. It just makes it easier to get into the glass.
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 tsp citric acid
- 3 cups water
- 1 750mL bottle of Moscato
- In a large pitcher, combine the sugar and water. Stir until sugar is dissolved. Add citric acid and repeat.
- Stir wine into pitcher. Pour into large ziploc freezer bag and seal. Place bag into second ziploc freezer bag for extra protection. Freeze for 8-10 hours.
I should also warn you that this looks a lot like frozen lemonade both in the bag and in a glass. So, if you have kiddos around, be sure to label your bag and keep an eye on your glass. We {almost} had a mistake where my six year old got a glass of this instead of her frozen lemonade. Now, everything in our freezer goes in WELL labeled.
What are you drinking this summer?
Awesome! Totally sharing. Thanks

How did you know how much citric acid to use?
I made the recipe several times and adjusted it each time until it worked the way I wanted to. 🙂 A local winery makes something similar so I asked them how much they use for a starting point.
