All. Summer. Long. Yep, I will be happy hour-ing with this pretty pink frosty rosé (frosé!) granita all summer long! Just 4 ingredients and a wee bit of patience, and your hot summer day doesn’t have a chance!
A handful of sweet summery fruits and a squeeze of fresh lime juice to balance it out and a tasty summer wine is ready to go cocktail-ing! Scoop up the icy treat and serve it as-is, or top it with a bit of sparkling water, wine or Prosecco for a fun, bubbly drink.
This could also work great with any of your favorite sweet summery fruits. Swap in blackberries, nectarines or peaches for the watermelon and a dry white wine for the rosé. The options are endless and with how easy it is, you could be sipping these all year-long!
