Frozen drinks are always popular, especially when the temperatures start climbing. Normally, you don't see this so much with wine, though, right? Think again. According to the article at Wine Enthusiast, it's the next big wine tasting trend:

Frozen wine slushes are hot. An appealing alternative to sangria or a wine spritzer, they are surprisingly refreshing, and retain the wine's character while adding and enhancing its attractive fruit flavors. Thirst quenching, not cloying, wine slushes are the perfect way for wine lovers to indulge their taste this summer while lounging by the pool or relaxing on the deck.

The most inviting wine slushes usually start with a dry, yet fruity white or red wine. (Some smart choices are Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc, Rioja, or Merlot.) Add a combination of fruit juice and/or fresh fruit, blend until smooth, and freeze until the desired consistency. (The alcohol in the wine will prevent the mixture from totally freezing solid).


They also offer a few wine slushe recipes, like this one:

Tropical: 1 bottle unoaked Chardonnay; 6 oz. mango nectar (look for cans of Jumex or another brand); 1 cup pineapple juice.

Hmmm...this might be something to try with all that white wine I am not usually that keen on.
