Cook's Notes:
The alcohol content keeps the mixture from freezing hard. The ice crystals melt pretty quickly so you can break it up and serve it in glasses, with or without spoons to scoop up the boozy slush.
Substitute brandy for the orange-flavored liqueur, if desired.

Simply put, this was DELICIOUS! Cool, refreshing, dare I say, somewhat healthy? I made this in advance, stirring about every 12 hours. I put the container in the fridge, about an hour prior to serving, and I think I should have put it on the counter. When I ran it through the blender, it had the consistency of a smoothie, and we had to have spoons, lol! It needed a bit more thaw time than I gave it. I used a cup of sugar in a quadrupled recipe, and I moistened the glasses with an orange slice and rimmed the glasses with sparkling sugar. Very festive, and everyone enjoyed this cool concoction on a very hot summer evening. Thanks for the recipe! Read More

It was a hit with my garden club members! I made minimal changes, like using frozen mixed berries instead of ice. I didn’t have an orange but that didn’t seem to make a difference. Putting it in the freezer made it very slushy, which was perfect. I will make this again. Such a refreshing recipe Read More
This absolutely perfect! Just what your hot evening needs. I started off by refrigerating the wine, Cointreau, and orange juice before making this. Read More
Tried this after seeing the recipe in the Aug/Sep 2019 AllRecipes magazine with the "hidden gem" tag. The recipe printed there was slightly different and I've typed it below:
1.5 cups sweet red wine, Zinfandel, or red blend
1.5 - 2 cups ice cubes
1 orange, juiced (about 1/3 cup)
1/3 cup frozen blueberries
1/3 cup frozen raspberries
1/3 cup frozen strawberries
1/4 cup orange liqueur
2 Tbsp sugar, or more to taste
Fresh berries (optional)
Followed the magazine recipe exactly using Rosatello Rose wine. Used a bit more ice until the right slushy consistency. This was so light and refreshing and looked so pretty. Definitely will make this again and I see this being a summertime tradition. This is one of those recipes that can be easily adapted to what you have on hand. Read More
Subbed Grey Goose for the orange liqueur and that worked fine. Also used a moderately dry Cabernet Sauvignon didn't add sugar used frozen concentrate instead of juice... Maybe one day I'll actually make a recipe as specified but in the meantime this one was a good guideline to a pleasant drink. Read More
Made these last night. Didn't have orange liqueur so I added a little extra sugar. They were fabulous. Everyone loved them. Can't wait to make them again! Read More
